Make sure you clean-up any area you have been working in. Please conserve materials as much as possible (paints, paper, markers, glue, etc.). Use all you need, but don’t waste. All of these things will be considered when judging spirit. Please ask before using items from individual rooms and return them when finished. Please put your name on a staple gun if you bring one. On Thursday when the bell rings at 8:15, all students meet in their sponsor’s classroom to take roll and lunch count and to talk about duties for the day. If you need extra pomps, either work a trade, buy from a class, or see Sandy.

Friday: The clean-up committee will eat first, followed in order by the royalty and trivia placement. Students may get permission to eat elsewhere if the cafeteria is full.
