Crispell Middle School Daily Announcements

        Good morning everyone, today is Monday, November 10, 2025 and today is a cycle B Day.

        SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGIST DAY – Let’s take a moment to express our appreciation for the guidance and support given by our school psychologists Ms. Cirigliano and Ms. Papuga.  Every day, you bring calm and clarity to our school.  We appreciate you!

        PROPER USE OF SCHOOL RESTROOMS – Students are reminded that our school restrooms are shared facilities that should be treated with respect and care. Please remember the following expectations:

        • Use restrooms appropriately. Restrooms are intended for their designated purpose only.
        • Do not write on walls, stalls, or fixtures. Graffiti, vandalism, or any form of damage to school property is unacceptable and may result in disciplinary action.
        • Maintain cleanliness. Dispose of trash properly, flush toilets after use, and wash your hands before leaving.
        • Show respect for others. Keep restrooms a safe, clean, and comfortable space for everyone in our school community.

        By following these guidelines, we demonstrate respect for our school, our peers, and ourselves. Thank you for helping maintain a positive and respectful environment.

        SMAD – Due to parent teacher conferences, the Students Making a Difference Club will not be meeting this week. 

        LIBRARY BOOK CLUB – The 7th grade book club is reading, “Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children.”  If you are interested in joining us for lunch to discuss the book on Thursday, December 11th, stop by the library to sign up and grab a copy of the book.

        SNOW DAY SHIRTS – Your science teachers are selling “Snow Day” t-shirts to support the 8th grade science awards.  Shirts cost $12.00.  Please see your science teacher if you are interested or have any questions.

        KINDNESS – This is your friendly reminder from the school library that kindness is contagious — and we’re kicking off our “Pay It Forward with a Random Act of Kindness” program!  Here’s how it works:  All month long, we’re challenging everyone to do one small act of kindness for someone else. It could be holding the door, helping a classmate with homework, giving a compliment, or just sharing a smile. Then, encourage that person to pay it forward by doing something kind for someone else.  Stop by the library to pick up a suggested random act of kindness and show a little Crispell Kindness.

        GIRLS LACROSSE – There will be a meeting after school on Wednesday, November 12 in the high school library for anyone interested in playing girls lacrosse in the spring. This will be for all levels. If you cannot make the meeting please see or email Coach Licardi or Coach Schwartz

        VOLLEYBALL GAME – The National Junior Honor Society is hosting its annual Students vs. Staff Faculty Volleyball Game on Friday, November 14 (6:00-8:00 PM).  Tickets will be on sale the week of the game, November 10-14 during each lunch period.  Tickets are $5.00.  The rules are:  student teams must sign up during lunch periods, maximum 8 players and students can only play with one team.  Any questions, please see Ms. Hoehmann or Mr. Charchan.

        FOOD DRIVE – Sponsored by the Students Making a Difference Club, the Thanksgiving Food Drive is here! Grade level teams are asked to donate non-perishable food items to help support our Crispell families during the holiday season. The team that donates the most items will be the first winners of the Turkey Trophy!  The food drive will take place from November 3rd to November 20th. All donations can be placed in the donation box in students’ homerooms.  

        ART CONTEST – Calling all artists, this year’s poster design theme is “Picture Your Future Through a Drug Free Lens”. Try your hand at winning a cash prize up to $200! See the flyers posted around the building or ask Mrs. Renart in room 129 for details and supplies.
