Club Announcements:

The Peace Jam Club will meet in Room 206 between 2:20 and 2:45 today. Planning for International Education Week will be the focus.

I bet you think this all the time: "Hey, too bad I can't recycle this banana peel." Well, you're in luck!! LHS now has a COMPOST BIN!!! It's the big black box in the courtyard. Just open the lid and throw your banana peel in. You can compost the following items: plant materials, bread, egg shells, plant-based food scraps, and most paper materials (if shredded). Please do NOT throw in: animal products (meat, fats, dairy products), citrus fruits (they're too acidic), metal, plastic, rubber, colored paper, and other trash products. Reduce the waste that goes into landfills by composting!

ATTENTION LADY LIONFISH: All girls interested in swimming and diving this year will have an extremely important meeting today at 2:20 in the pool area.
