The Interact Club is organizing the One Warm Coat clothing drive this Thursday. Members of the club will go to students' third period classes to pick up any donated coats, sweaters, and other items of clothing. The donations will go to the East Oakland Emergency Shelter, which supports up to 150 families at any given time.

It’s that time of year again; this year’s winter ball is Friday.

This year, however, the annual dance is being called “winter formal.” The senior class is in charge of the winter ball this year and they have decided it’s going to be a little different from years' passed. The dress code for this event is formal and apparently it will be enforced and anyone wearing jeans will be turned away.

ACTIVITIES:
Check out Hip Hop Elements’ Mayhem show tomorrow during lunch in the Pavilion. Come by the Health Center if you want to perform.

The Cross Country banquet is tonight at 7:00 in the Student Union.

Interested in Track & Field? sign up in the Weight Room on M,W,F after school.

From wikipedia —Christina Georgina Rossetti (December 5, 1830 – December 29, 1894) was an English poet. Her siblings were the artist Dante Gabriel Rossetti, William Michael Rossetti and Maria Francesca Rossetti. Their father, Gabriele Rossetti, was an Italian poet and a political asylum seeker from Naples, and their mother, Frances Polidori, was the sister of Lord Byron's friend and physician, John William Polidori.
