Dunsmuir Rugby Teams are starting practices Monday, March 4th. There will be 4 practices before Spring break: March 4th, March 6th, March 11th, and March 13th. These practices will run 3-4pm on the field. 

All players interested in playing middle school contact rugby should attend these practices as numbers at these practices will indicate the teams we will run at Dunsmuir this year. If we have enough players, we will have a grade 7/8 boys team, a grade 6/7 boys team, and a girls team (all grades).

Athletes must have a mouthguard to participate in any contact sessions during practices. Cleats are also recommended (they do not need to be rugby specific cleats).

 

 
 

“Wade in the Water” is among spiritual songs believed to have been sung to communicate secret code messages to escaping slaves. It warned them to flee dry land for the water, so the dogs and owners chasing them couldn’t track their scent. Such songs are believed to have been used throughout the Underground Railroad — a secret network used by thousands of slaves to escape to freedom during the 19th century.

Students! If your class does not have a regular library time or if your teacher sometimes… forgets… to bring you to the library, you are still responsible for getting your books renewed or returned. The return slot in the hallway is always open. 

Advisory/homeroom teachers receive overdue notices every Monday morning and your families are emailed home at the beginning of each month to remind you of overdues.

There are 401 overdues this morning – including teacher resources.
