The speech team not only hosted last weekend's Turkey Meet, but in fact, East WON THE MEET, beating out powerhouses like Kent, Lakewood and Creek. This is a huge win for the team, and is the first time they won the meet in four years. Congrats to Mr. Murphy , Mr. LaRue and Ms. May, as well as all the Angels who helped make this victory possible.
Tomorow after school in the gym is Rock and Jock, a East tradition where teachers play students in basketball. Tickets are $2 ahead of time and $3 at the door. Tickets will be on sale at lunch tomorow in the lobby, and in Room 100. You can also purchase them form any member of sophomore council (Nate Reynolds, Ashley Canada, Hannah Carrothers, Nora Bates, Elliot Mamet and Ian Kamlet).
Each ticket will function as a raffle ticket, and we will be raffling off some Chiplotle Burrito bucks and five $10 Gift Cards to Steve's Snappin Dogs, located just a few blocks north of East on Colfax. Thanks to Chipotle and to Steve's for donating the gift cards, as well as to King Soopers, Safeway and Sam's Club for donating concessions.
List of Rock and Jock players can be found below.
Mad props to the instrumental music department, who had seven students appear this afternoon on 89.3 FM to promote the upcoming fundraiser. As a reminder, the annual instrumental music pizza dinner is this Thursday in the commons. Tickets are $8 a piece, and $25 for a family of four. There are many great items getting auctioned off, such sporting tickets, Tattered Cover gift cards, a QDoba bar for 20 people, and even a week in a four bedroom Frisco ski condo! For more information, contact keith_oxman@dpsk12.org or 720-423-8366.
Also, great season football! We advanced into the second round of the playoffs, and lost to Number One Grandview (and did not get killed!). It was a excellent season and our program gets better every year. Great job to Coach Woolfork and everyone else involved.
Remember to check out the volunteer board in Room 100 for all sorts of volunteer opportunities. It is being updated constantly, and colleges love community service, so go check it out.
Thanks to the Crawford family for hosting tonight's PTSA potluck.
Good luck to the Con Law team on their upcoming district meet, on Tuesday the 18th.
And a reminder that the fashion show is Thursday the 20th and Battle of the Bands is on Friday the 21st.
The sophomore shirts are here, and we have pictures!
