Just Waiting for Friday...

The anticipation for the weekend to come is almost too much to bear! Congrats to the Highschool girls for the win against Waynoka. Regionals are today and we are hoping for another win.  We wish you and the boys tomorrow the best!
 It's almost time to celebrate 100 proud years of Leedey. Please remember to sign up for Leedey 5k run/walk or the 1 mile fun run/walk.  There are only 23 precious goody bags left, so hurry and sign up so you can get all of the great stuff! To sign up you must pay $25 for either the 5k and 1mile.  Go to the website www.leedey5krun.com
Those book reports must be done or your grade will be not-so-good! October 13th is the last and final day to give oral book reports for Mrs. Gore.
The bookclub meeting went fantastic for the known book fanatics. We all need to hurry to check out those Sequoyah books and hopefully finish by the next book club meeting.
 The weather is nice, but STILL 0% PERCENT CHANCE OF RAIN! At least its nice and sunny outside and the dark clouds aren't making a mockery of our pleading down below!  :)
Its almost October and the cold weather will soon be within our grasp (slow, but soon). I hope that the weather will continue to stay this nice for the upcoming softball and baseball events. My best to all out there who can't wait for Friday to come!! Thats your update, from the classroom!
