| Millions of people across the world are going to be striking for climate in September, all with different experiences of the climate crisis. You can learn more about climate change and the demand for action this Thursday during Spartan Time. Mrs. Raymond will be showing some short clips about climate change and action, and opportunities to get your voices heard.

Random Fact of the Day: In the A McDonald’s in Sedona, Arizona uses turquoise arches instead of golden ones as government officials felt the yellow ones contrasted too much with the area’s scenic red rock.
Life Hacks from your school nurse: Ever have that thing in the back of your throat that makes you want to gag and cough it out? You can instantly get rid of it by scratching your ear. The scratching activates the nerves in the ear which in turn creates a reflux-like reaction, causing a muscle twitch. The muscle twitching in your ear eases the tickle in your throat.
