500 Turkeys is baaaaack!  This week during your 5th period bring in all the yummy sides that go with a Thanksgiving dinner...green beans, mashed or scalloped potatoes, dressing, brownie mix, pumpkin pie filling  and crust or cranberry sauce.  Each item has points attached.  Check out the signs around the building or in Google Classroom.  The winning class gets free lunch and their teacher in a Turkey costume!  Our goal is to be able to donate to the Tipp Food Pantry enough sides to feed 500 families.  If you have any questions see Willy Hept.
