Good morning, Cherokees!
The Interact Club of Morgan Middle/High School will hold its first meeting of the 23/24 school year next Wednesday, September 6th, during SRT, in Mrs. Fezatt’s room B130. Both: returning and new members should bring the $5 dues, in a ziplock bag, with your name on it. Only members with paid dues can vote and participate in future meetings.
We are also looking for three members to run for Junior Office - the Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary. You will have a supporting role and work closely with your high school Senior Officers. If interested, please contact Jillian George, the Club’s President or Mrs. Fezatt by Wednesday morning.
We are looking forward to another exciting year of Service Beyond Self.
Attention High School students: Do you want to expand your vocabulary? As you may have heard, this is very helpful to your SAT Verbal Score! Do you want to compete with other schools for individual & team awards? We will have a blast practicing as a team! You don’t have to spell out loud, like they do on TV! Impress your friends when you can spell & define words like amblyopia, Dostoyevsky, and panacea! If you are interested, we will have a call-out meeting in Mrs. Taylor's room (B126 in the middle school wing) during SRT TODAY. Hope to see you there!
