The leadership team is hosting a fun guessing game to support our local food bank, and we need your help! Can you guess how many colorful pom poms are in the jar? Stop by the front entrance today at lunch and take a guess for 50 cents. The student with the closest guess will win 10 cafeteria dollars! Let’s come together to make a difference while having fun!

Metro Transit
For students who take the metro transit bus at the end of the day, just a reminder that you are students of Astral Drive Junior High and you are still representing our school and community. Please refrain from throwing food on the bus and using loud, foul language. Other passengers are reporting this becoming a concern.

We are seeking a few students who are interested in reading a passage or serving as Master of Ceremonies for our Remembrance Day ceremony. If you would like to participate, please see Mr. Ouellette by the end of the week.
We are also looking for cadets, scouts and girl guides who would like to participate in the Remembrance Day ceremony. Please stop by the office to see Ms. Nash.
