EXTENDED ADVISORY 10/18/2012

For extended advisory on October 18th we will be watching a Nick News video on the upcoming elections. The video is approximately 22 minutes long. There will be a worksheet in teacher mailboxes on the 17th for advisory classes - teachers don't need to make copies but can preview the worksheet for advisory. Students should then bring this worksheet to their Social Studies classes in order to continue the conversation either tomorrow or at a later date.

Here is the link for Nick News: Kids pick the president

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Candlewood Middle School is going PINK!

During Extended Advisory on Thursday Oct 11th students and staff will be able to buy a Pink Link in our Candlewood Chain of Hope for a donation of just $1.

Links can personalized with a statistic about breast cancer or the link can be dedicated to someone who is affected by the disease.

Cancer Faith

by Michaela Fournier

 

Cancer may come unexpectedly into your life,


Bringing fear, hard times, and great strife.

Families suffer and the end clearly unknown.


Families are stronger than ever and not alone.

Our personalities must stay optimistic,


Feeling better and free will be realistic.

The experience could be a long, hard ride,


Twists and turns in which you have cried.

When you fight and beat it and go on to live,


Don't forget the people who are here to give.

Love and care will forever and always stay.


Cancer will be knocked out of the way.

Your soul is and will be stronger than this;


It can conquer cancer, destroy and dismiss.

Courage and memories are very much needed, 


As tiring treatments have faithfully succeeded.

Friendship, family, and faith cannot be suppressed;


They are the loving souls that make you blessed.
