The Rotary Interact Club is celebrating Interact Week November 13-16th.

Wednesday will be “United We Stand Against Polio” Day. (Wear red, white, and blue)

Thursday will be “Team Up Against Polio” Day. (Wear a club, organization, or team shirt)

Friday will be “Tigers Together” Day. (Wear orange and black)

During this week we will be raising funds to help Rotary International in their fight against polio. In 30 years, we’ve gone from 125 polio-endemic countries to only three. Students will pay $2 to decorate their lockers to show support for Rotary’s battle against polio. The theme is TIGER PRIDE/TIGERS CARE ABOUT POLIO. The class hallway that does the best job will win the spirit stick and the best locker from each class hallway will win a gift card. We are encouraging teachers to decorate their doors to help support their class hallway and help them win the spirit stick. If you would like to participate but don’t have time to do so, members of the Interact club would be happy to assist. We will also have a limited number of “End Polio Now” wristbands available for $2. Donations will also be accepted at lunch or may be given to D. Johnson. Thank you for supporting Rotary’s fight against polio and thank you for supporting Rotary Interact.
