It's a GREAT week to be a Gorilla!
Did you see the first issue of the Solomon School News that went home with your student this week? If you haven't seen it yet, stories are available on the school website! https://www.usd393.net/news
Join us next Tuesday, 11/28, as the HS Football Team fires up the grill at the HS Basketball Jamboree against Abilene and Russell! Enjoy a delicious Pulled Pork Meal with a sandwich, chips, a Carter bar, and a drink. The suggested donation is $7, and all proceeds will directly support our SHS Football Team. We would like to give a shoutout to Country Mart and Bush’s Market for their support in making this event possible!
2023-24 High School basketball schedule. Come support the Gorillas this season!
Attention High School Parents/STUDENTS! RAKES NEEDED. On Tuesday morning, Nov. 21 All High School students will be doing their annual community service day. All Students 9-12 need 5 hours each year (Total of 20) to graduate. They will get three working our annual Rake & Run, Raking leaves, cleaning up yards, etc. It would be very helpful if you would send your student with one or more Rakes. Feel free to drop it by the school for them to use. (It will be labeled and they will be the ones to use it) This just helps our service day go faster. We have a total of 28 yards to rake, so it takes everyone's help!
Tomorrow is the last day to order from the wrestling and basketball BSN TeamStore.

Congratulations to Kenzie Kaiser and Archer Gennett. They were our Turkey Trot Fun Run/Walk turkey winners! Just so you don't have to carry a turkey home with you, I am sending home $25 gift cards. Thank you to you all who came out and supporting Operation Gorilla Family!! See you in December!
Look at this activity planned by Mr. Luce and Mr. Capsey! What could music and basketball have in common? Rhythm! Students are working on hand-eye coordination, controlled dribbling skills, rhythm, and staying on the beat all at the same time!
Want to get outdoors with the family before the winter weather hits? Or maybe a chance to win a free turkey for the holidays? Come to the Turkey Trot tomorrow at 5:00 pm! Entries to win are doubled with a food donation for Operation Gorilla Family.

This year we are implementing a mentoring program at our school, and yesterday was their first get-together. Having a Big or Little friend will help us make connections, learn new skills, and build community. Students will partner up every Monday.
