And Cooper B had a 3rd place win

All of our wrestlers won at least 1 match on the night and some earned their first wins. Go Marauders!!

A reminder that we will be selling concessions tomorrow at the end of the day and also that we will have no school Wed, Thurs or Friday in order to celebrate Thanksgiving.

And now it’s time for Manic Mystery Monday and we have a special Thanksgiving themed question for you today so teachers call 1420 when your students have heard the entire question and have an answer:

Question:  How heavy was the world’s heaviest turkey?

Answer:  The heaviest turkey in the world was an 86-pound bird named Tyson in the UK.  In contrast the average Thanksgiving turkey is 15 pounds.  So about 5 ½ families would get dinner and leftovers out of Tyson.

Winning Class: Hewitt.

Have a marvelous Monday everybody!
