Good morning, Astros! Here are this week’s announcements for athletics and clubs! 

Get your friends together to battle it out for a school-wide volleyball tournament, including some infamous teachers, administrators, and security team members! At least 6 people are required to form a team; you can have a maximum of 10 people. The cost is $5 per person and the event will be held in the Hackler gym on March 11th. Reach out to Mrs. Smith in room 6-108-A in the Media Center for information to join, or scan the QR codes on posters around campus.

Are you interested in learning how to crochet, but don't have time before or after school?  The Saltmarsh Library is now hosting a crochet group during Flex periods for learners of all skill levels.  Crochet lessons will be taught by experienced student crocheters.  Sessions are now available.  Simply go to Enriching Students and go to clubs under the departments tab.  There will be an option to sign up for the Library Crochet Club.  Space is limited and these slots are for crocheters only.  Hope to see you there!

Applications are now being accepted for this year's Annual Dance Club Awarded Scholarship. This is a $500 cash award that goes to a Dance Program student. In order to be eligible, students must be involved in the Dance Program in some way during the current school year. Interested students should submit a 500 word essay explaining 1) why they deserve the award and 2) what they propose to do with the scholarship that would expand their dance education in ways that are clearly centered in dancing.

Two copies should be submitted:  One of which should not include any student identification. The other should include both the student's name and mailing address. Please submit both copies to Mr. Boccia of the Music Program. Essays are due no later than Wednesday, April 3rd. 

Do you want to help freshmen transition into Pinkerton Academy and get community service hours?  Apply to be part of the Academy Mentor Program!  An informational meeting will be held on Monday, March 11th at 2pm in the freshman cafeteria. Applications are due April 5th and will open after break.  If you have any questions or are interested in joining, reach out to Mrs. Spinelli ([email protected]) or Mrs. Matrumalo ([email protected]).
