CLUBS
Student council is going to conduct a fundraising effort to support the situation in Ukraine. There are many people who have been impacted and are in need of safety and resources. In order to raise funds to assist those in need, Crossley will be collecting donations later this week. There will be students coming around to classes during Period 1 on Thursday and we will have a donation table set up in the front foyer at lunch on Thursday and Friday. If you are able to give, any donation makes a difference. Thank you for your support, and remember that any donation can make a difference for those in need.
Sadly, the Oddity film Society is canceled for this week. We will resume watching movies and podcasting next week.

Welcome back Crossley rowers. Getting closer by the day to finally getting on the water. Please continue to attend practice consistently during the regular scheduled practices for experienced and novice rowers. Novice rowers if you are unable to attend a Tuesday or Thursday practice, please join us on Monday-Wednesday or Friday instead. Remember- many of our competitors are already training on the water so a missed workout is a missed opportunity. If you have any intention of participating in a second spring sport, please speak to Mr. Ruscitti as soon as you can so we can help you manage your schedule. Blue skies and golden waters are on the horizon!
Attention Jr. Boys’ Basketball team, there will be a meeting in room 406 at the beginning of lunch. Please see Mr. Petro or Mr. Harris if you have any questions.
