Bat Invades Deep Wood Cafeteria A Story By: Erin
The cafeteria will never be the same. I can’t believe a bat deliberately flew into our cafeteria! My friend Erin Risinger saw the bat swoop down in the cafeteria. This is what she said: “It was small, and blackish-brownish. It was really fast, you wouldn’t be able to catch it. It kept to itself up near the ceiling, but the principal still was afraid the bat would give us rabies or something. That’s why we got the liberty of eating in the classroom. “ Our principal, Mrs. Perkins, had the bat removed from our campus. What an interesting day indeed. |

Read It Forward: The Book FOUND A Story By: Margaret
This thrilling and page turning book is about a thirteen - year-old boy named Jonah that has already known he was adopted but had no idea it was going to change his life forever. Then he and his friend Chip, who is also adopted, began getting weird letters. They say “you are one of the missing,” And “Beware! They’re coming back to get you.” Jonah, Chip, and Chip’s sister Katherine come across a mystery that involves the FBI, a huge smuggling operation, an airplane that appears out of nowhere, and people who seem to disappear and reappear at will! The kids find that they are stuck in the middle of a battle between two opposing forces that want very different things for Jonah and Chip. Do Jonah and Chip have any say in this? What should they choose if both choices are flat out terrifying? The cool thing about this is when you read it you take a survey about the book then you get a cool dog tag with “I AM ONE OF THE MISSING” engraved on it. |

Delicious food is probably what you are thinking, but it is not just that. Every year around Thanksgiving each school district, in every city, does a food drive to help soldiers in the war, hospitals, and people in need. Someone thought about collecting food and this was a good idea. Peanut butter, vegetables, soup, and other foods will help a lot. Even toiletry donations help.
