CHORUS SINGER TO PE TEACHER!!!!!

Mr. Hartman: When he was in middle school he had to be in either the band or chorus, so he was in the chorus. He got a couple solos in a few productions. In 6th grade he was in Alvin and the chipmunks for the Christmas pageant. He was Alvin. Also he was in Yankee- doddle- dandy! IN 7th grade he was in Grease the musical and was one of the LEADS!! Finally in 8th grade he did his last production and it was the Beatles medley. If you see him you should talk to him about it. Remember, don’t judge a book by it cover!


IS BIG FOOT REAL??!!!??

When Mr. Miller was 7 years old he went to his Grandma’s house for Christmas Break, and it just happened to snow quite a lot up there. Well... while he was there Mr. Miller’s cousin, Mark, told Mr. M that Bigfoot was real and lived in the woods around them, and just telling him CRAZY stories about Bigfoot. The next morning, Mr. Miller woke up and looked out the window to see what he thought was Bigfoot prints all over the ground outside. So, he goes to his cousin Mark and says “Look, there’s a Bigfoot print outside!” Mark was saying things like “Hopefully he didn’t do anything or maybe even come into the house...” Well, that scared Mr. M so much, that almost the whole rest of the day he was terrified that Bigfoot would do something to him! But later that day, Mr. Miller’s Grandma told him that big foot wasn’t real, and that the “foot prints” were really just a dog leaping through the snow because it was so deep, and it just happened to look like giant footprints! Well, Mr. Miller learned that day that Bigfoot isn’t real! I wonder if he ever believed his cousin again.
Oh, Mr. Miller!

WHATS IN THE PILLOW CASE??!!??

Our art teacher Mr. Groff, when in college his roommate bought a baby boa constrictor and hid it in their room, they weren’t allowed to have pets at his college. The snake could fit in there shirt, but after a year the snake got over 5 feet long!! They couldn’t fit it in their shirt anymore. So they turned their closet into a little cage for the snake. Once a month they would put the snake in a pillow case and take it to the post office to get it weighed. The boa constrictor was a very loving snake. Mr. Groff and his roommate would watch TV with the snake and do there homework with it. They named the loving snake Walter. They loved Walter. Don’t try this.
