Congratulations to the Softball team for defeating Corning on Monday!
There will be an Art Club meeting during advisory today- March 19th, in the art room.
March is Youth Art Month (YAM). There will be a different art activity each week in March for everyone to participate in. For this week's Youth Art Month activity, all students are invited to create a design idea for Pumpkin Hollow's maze. All ideas will have a chance to win a prize on Thursday, the student's design chosen by Pumpkin Hollow will win a bigger prize, and their idea will be used to create the maze.
Students, A public display of affection (PDA) is any intimate act between two or more people that others can see. Examples include kissing, hugging, holding hands, arms around each other, or caressing. Remember that lunch detention will be assigned.
