· On behalf of Student Council, I want to thank everyone who participated in Pack the Pantry by bringing canned goods and financial donations. Because of your generosity, we were able to raise a total of $2,288 dollars and collect a total of 2,107 pounds of food! In elementary school, the homeroom winner of a pizza and movie party, with an average of 9.72 pounds of food per student was Mrs. Claire Carlisle’s homeroom, and in middle school, with an unbelievable average of 25.39 pounds per student was Miss Sally Dickerson’s homeroom.

· The basketball schedule has been posted on the Herndon website. However, the game that was supposed to be played on Thursday, December 8 has been moved to Wednesday, December 7. The game will still be at CMM at 5:30 PM. I apologize for this being on a Wednesday Night, but it was unavoidable. This will be the only Wednesday night games of the season. · Please visit Herndon’s website at herndonmagnet.caddoschools.org or the Herndon Facebook page for additional information about upcoming activities and events.
