Today is RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS! You are challenged to complete the act of kindness that is written on your card. One small act can spark a chain reaction, so see what you can do!

 Mr. Davis’ A block and B block classes will not drop today (Wednesday). They will be in rehearsal for Saturday’s Jazz Concert in the CPAC.

Next Tuesday, November 8th, we will celebrate our democracy and Election Day with KidsVoting! Please stop by the Private Dining Room between classes, during breaks and lunch, and during student choice to vote! The AP Gov students and ELP classes will also be collecting exit poll data. In order to fully celebrate our right to vote and democratic values, please wear your red, white, and blue that day! Since we are a precinct for regular voting and KidsVoting, students may not wear political shirts supporting particular candidates and/or issues since electioneering activities are not allowed too close the voting polls.

Leadership Lunch with Mr. Bill Diskin (Checking the Ego) on Friday in Foundation Hall.  Everyone welcome!

Thursday at lunch time we will have a math club meeting in room 504. 

ITS BACK!!! Cannon Math Competition on November 10th (Math Drop Day) in the Academic Center.  Challenges for all levels and PRIZES!!!  Ask your math teacher today!

On Friday, Nov. 4 during lunch, stop by the table set up outside the lunchroom to meet with a representative from Oxbridge Academic Programs. Oxbridge offers students the opportunity to spend the summer in one of 10 locations across Europe and the United States. Students select from over 180 subjects such as Medicine, Law, Engineering, Drama, Photography and Fashion, in cities like Oxford, Cambridge, Paris, Barcelona, New York, Los Angeles and more. Stop by to pick up a brochure and learn more about this amazing summer study abroad opportunity.

Halloween is coming up quickly, and House Animus wants to make sure that our armed forces can get some treats too. The House is teaming up with Operation Gratitude in their Candy Buyback program  to collect any leftover candy you may have from Halloween (including chocolate, but no Pixy Stix please) and unused dental hygiene products. There will be collection boxes at the front and back entrances to the school  for everyone and one for teachers in the teacher workroom. All donations will be accepted until November 11 (Veterans Day). If you have any questions, please email cmichaels@cannonschool.org (Animus Service Prefect) or jliborio@cannonschool.org (Animus Head Girl). Thank you for your support!!
