Thoreau Middle School Home

Yesterday during the Parent Teacher Conferences, six of your Student Council Members worked to make your school a little safer. They used their muscles and teamwork to clean up the bigger rocks and cement chunks around the area you all like to play football and hit the volleyball. Your Student Council Members decided to clean this area for all of us because they did not want you to fall and badly hurt yourselves if you hit the rocks. They also picked up trash around the basketball court and removed some 2 x 4s that had nails in them, again removing dangerous items for you. There were three boys that also helped lift a large cement block into the truck, Student Council would like to thank them as well! Thank you Student Council members, you are making great changes! We are proving that there are great leaders in all of us! We can all make differences everyday, please pick up your trash, even if its not your trash, pick it up and put it in the garbage. Say "please" and "thank you." If you see something that you would like to see improved, start the change, people want to help, sometimes we just need you to start! Remember, like Mrs. Peshlakai said, make positive choices for a healthier life!
