NHS: The National Honor Society is sponsoring a Rock-Paper-Scissor Competition this week!

 Students can sign up during all lunch waves and before school on Friday morning. The price to participate is $1.

 

Students who sign up will receive three beaded bracelets to start. Participants can challenge others to a game of rock-paper-scissors, and the winner gets to “steal” a bracelet from their opponent. Staff members can also join by purchasing a beaded necklace for $1, which students may challenge as well. At the end of the event, the participant with the most bracelets and necklaces wins!

Buy your bracelets this week and competition begins Friday !!!
