GOOD MORNING!
The vocabulary word of the day is INGEST. This word refers to the absorbing of food we eat into the body.
Today’s good character message: There is an old story about God discussing with his angels where He should place the secret of life so that it would be most difficult to find. One suggested the core of the earth, another the bottom of the sea, a third the highest mountain. A fourth angel objected: “People will eventually search out all these places,” he said. “The only place is within himself. He will never dream of looking there.” That place within ourselves is our heart. The secret of life is enjoying life. When we are positive to others and share our gifts with them, the inner feeling of good is not worth any kind of money value, it is priceless and cannot be purchased.
Have a great day!

GOOD MORNING!
The vocabulary word of the day is BUCKEYE. This word refers to the brown seed or nut of the horse chestnut tree. This word also refers to a native or resident of Ohio and an Ohio State University football player.
Picture retakes will take place this morning. If you have brought back your picture package for retakes and have not returned the package to the office, please do so before 8:45 today. Mr. Bryan will come to your homeroom to pick you up when the photographer is ready.
Please remind your parents and guardians about completing the SchoolMall booklets. We would like to send them in next Tuesday morning. Thanks.
Today’s good character message: Have you ever heard the saying “I’m okay and you’re okay?” It was a top selling book that told the story of how none of us are perfect. Maybe the book should really be titled, “I’m not okay and you’re not okay.” This would state that we all have problems and make mistakes. With this in mind, we should always be prepared to make up and give apology for our mistakes and forgiveness to others who also make mistakes. Following this thought will lead us into a better relationship with others, creating an “I’m okay and you’re okay” partnership.
Have a great day and hopefully the Buckeyes will have a great weekend!
