Eligibility

Eligibility for the winter sports season began this week. Students must maintain a 75% or higher in their classes in order to be eligible for that week. I will send an email home if your athlete is ineligible for the week. 

Veteran’s Day

Please have your student here by 8:15 AM on Veteran’s Day (Tuesday, November 11th) if possible! We will be helping serve breakfast before the program. Thank you!

Stony Point

Last week, permission slips were sent home for the Stony Point Friendsgiving field trip on Friday, November 21st. Please make sure to send those back in. We are also in need of drivers. If you can drive, please let me know so that we can make sure we have background checks and updated insurance information on file. 

Bagging for Tips

Hyvee Bagging for Tips will take place this Saturday from 10:30 until 3-4, depending on how busy the store is. Students should wear a Hope t-shirt and bring lunch/money for lunch. Please see your email for more information. 

Operation Christmas

We are collecting items for a Christmas box for a girl as a class. A sign-up genius is below for you to sign up for items to bring in; that way, we do not have duplicates. Students are also encouraged to grab a box on their way out of the building to complete as a family. Boxes are to be turned in on November 12th, and they will be blessed during our chapel that day. Items for the class box are due on November 11th. Thank you for supporting this and giving back to the community!

Memory

Monday, November 10

2 Peter 3:15-16 And count the patience of our Lord as salvation, just as our beloved

brother Paul also wrote to you according to the wisdom given him, as he does in

all his letters when he speaks in them of these matters. There are some things in

them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their

own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures.

Thursday, November 13

Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you

rest.” 

John 5:39 “You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal

life; and it is they that bear witness about me.”

Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in

Christ Jesus our Lord.
