FOR STUDENTS

Poplar Bluff Junior High School

November 11 thru November 15, 2019

 WELCOME

Welcome Back!  I hope everyone had a nice weekend!  It’s going to be super cold this week.  Please dress appropriately for the weather!

End of the Semester

There are only three weeks until Thanksgiving Break and then three weeks after Thanksgiving Break left until the semester ends. Only 7 weeks until the end of the decade… let that sink in! That’s not much time left.  Midterms are due on November 19th. Finish Strong! Remember… two semester F’s will earn you summer school and the possibility of retention in the same grade.

Blankets and Hoods/Hats

As the weather turns colder, this is a reminder that blankets are not to be brought to school and no hoods or hats may be worn inside the building.  Dress appropriately for the weather!  

Hallway Behavior

The hallways have become way too loud during passing times and in the mornings coming up from breakfast.  There is no need to shout and scream. Use inside voices or you will be asked to go back and try again until it’s an acceptable noise level.

Sleep in Heavenly Peace

Students and staff are invited to help with a community service project happening here at PBJHS! On Saturday, November 16, Sleep in Heavenly Peace will be hosting a build day to build 30 beds for kids without beds in our area. This activity will be from 8:30 a.m. to 12 noon out in our SHOP building. . Please sign up online to volunteer! Volunteer
