Viking Alliance, a newly formed club at Geneva Middle School South, will have its first meeting after school on Friday, October 4th in the Reading Lounge. Viking Alliance is a student-led club for anyone who would like to do fun activities in a supportive, inclusive and nonjudgmental atmosphere. Viking Alliance is about valuing all people no matter their cultural beliefs or their sexual orientation.

If you believe in everyone’s right to be themselves, think that differences make a community stronger and enjoy lively discussion about diversity and inclusion, then this club is for you. 

Please see Mrs. Rolf in the Guidance Office if you have any questions.

Do you hear sleigh bells? Christmas is only about three months away. And do you know what would be an awesome gift for your mom, dad, grandma or your favorite uncle? A scarf or washcloth that YOU crocheted in the Crochet Intramural! Adults LOVE homemade stuff from our kids! So, pop into to the office and pick up a permission slip soon!

Do you sometimes find yourself needing extra help in math? From time to time do you have questions about math homework? Do you wish you had other opportunities to meet with a math teacher? Well, beginning next week there will be math tutoring sessions on Tuesday and Thursdays before school from 7:45-8:30 and after school from 3:30-4:20 pm. Feel free to drop in any session for as long as you need. No sign up is required.

6th and 8th grade boys’ lunch groups will meet tomorrow, Friday instead of today.

 

Don’t forget that the first meeting of the Viking Gamer Club is Monday after school in the Old Up Lab from 3:30-5:30. Be sure to pick up a sign-up sheet and return it by tomorrow if you want to participate.

 

The first Math Club meeting of the school year is going to be Monday after school until 4:20 in Mrs. Gain’s room 122 at North.

Social Studies Club kicks off its first meeting with another Amazing Race!  Compete against teams to solve some of history's mysteries.  The fastest, most clever participants will take the prize.  The first meeting of Social Studies Club will be next Monday, September 23rd until 4:25 in Mr. Fader's room in the 8W team center.  Be there to start the Amazing Race!  

The next intramural is going to be Bowling! It’s going to start October 10th, it will last for 8 weeks and it’s only $50 to join. Also this intramural is for both North and South students, so this is a great chance to do something fun with your friends from North! Permission slips are available in the Main Office.

As you probably know by now, next week is a Spirit Wear week! We’re going to kick off the week with a Pajama Day. Personally, I can think of a better way to start the week than to wear your pajamas to school!
