Good afternoon Discovery family. I hope that everyone is having a wonderful weekend. Below are the announcements for this week.
At Community on Friday, I talked with our students about our Pepsi Philosophy and the importance of working before rewarding themselves. This is an important concept, not just for school, but for life in general.
Monday and Tuesday are Enrichment, Wednesday is Advisory, Thursday is Family, and Friday is Community.
There will be a Lunch and Learn for Seniors and their parents on Friday October 3rd at 11:30. I encourage parents to attend this as Ms. Arditti will be covering important information that will be relevant for seniors as they close out their high school careers.
Parents, I encourage you to discuss your student's classes with them. We are a month into school and it is important for you to know how he/she is doing. Feel free to reach out to his/her teachers if you have any questions.
The following are the Character Awards for this week: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mUlgocO5pLSuUZ2tebqCr9WN8DB4ySeP/view?usp=sharing.
I hope that everyone has a terrific week. Take care.

More information about the blood drive can be found in the attached flyer. Thanks in advance for your support.
Discovery is very excited to announce we are hosting a fundraiser called Castle of Cans, but we cannot do it without the support of parents and students. All you need to do is donate some cans of food if you're able. Our goal is to raise 1,000 cans. If we can reach our goal, then Mr. Whitener will do the ice bucket challenge!
Thank you
Vice President of the Discovery Student Senate
Anthony Giometti
The enrichment schedule is as follows: Monday and Tuesday - Enrichment, Wednesday - SEL, and Thursday - Community.
There is no school on Friday as it is a teacher workday.
Looking ahead, we have a blood drive coming up on Friday October 10th.

From our School Board:
Dear Parents and Families,
The Newton-Conover City Board of Education has begun the search for a new Superintendent, and your voice matters in this process.
We invite you to take a few minutes to complete a short survey and share what qualities and priorities you feel are most important for our district’s next leader.
Please complete the survey by September 14.

Thank you for your time and for being such an important part of our school community.
This week's Enrichment Schedule: Monday and Tuesday - Enrichment, Wednesday - Advisory, Thursday - Family, and Friday - Park Day.
We will host an Open House on Thursday 5:30-6:30. This will provide parents an opportunity to come and meet their student's teachers.
Friday is Park Day. Students brought home permission slips this past week. These need to be signed and returned in order for students to be able to participate.
We will be participating in a Canned Food Drive starting tomorrow and running through October 10th. Our goal is 1000 cans of food. If we reach that goal, Mr. Whitener will pour a bucket of ice water on himself.
