Starting this week,
you will hear music being played each Friday as you walk into school.
Mrs. Fedor will be featuring a specific composer twice a month. This
time we are featuring Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Did you know that he is one
of the most prolific composers of all time, writing over 600 pieces of music in
his short life? To learn more about Mozart, come to the library and check
out the listening station! Have a suggestion for a future musician to
feature? See Mrs. Fedor in the library!
Intramurals will be starting very soon and all students are
invited to participate! Correction - The
first two programs will be SOFTBALL beginning on Monday, September 10th after
school and FLAG FOOTBALL beginning on Tuesday, Sept. 11th after
school. Permission slips and more
information are available in the main office. This is a great way to make new
friends and have fun with your old friends!
6th Graders, don’t forget that the
first 6th Grade Jivin’ Geneva is tomorrow after school from 3:30 –
5:00.
Are you psyched yet for Spirit Week next week? No?
Well you should be because the first hour class in each grade level with the
most participation gets donuts the next week! So, listen for the theme
the day before, wear something from the theme the next day and you will help
your class win donuts! Remember, Monday
is ESPN day – so wear your favorite sports jersey or tee, Tuesday is the Disney
Channel – wear your favorite Disney attire, Wednesday is MTV – wear your
favorite band t-shirt or dress up like your favorite musician, Thursday is
Animal Planet – wear a t-shirt with your favorite animal on it or dress up like
an animal, and Friday is GTV, Geneva Television – how blue and white can you
go?
From the Sports Desk:
Last night, the 7th grade Viking football team traveled
to St. Charles Thompson for its season opener. Although the skies were dark and
storms threatened, the Vikings had no trouble handling the Thunder. Nate
Stempowski's touchdown run in the first quarter set the tone and Charlie
Winterhalter added two more. Those points were all the Vikings needed, as an
incredible team defensive effort led by Rocco DiLeonardi and Jacob Black
blanked the Thunder offense on the way to a 22-0 victory.
The 8th grade football team improved their level of play,
and persevered through the torrential downpour, but still came up short by
losing to St. Charles Thompson last night by a score of 34-0.
The Vikings play at home
next Tuesday vs Yorkville.
