Hey students, did you go to Manoa? Maybe you were in The Aristocats last year and would like
to help out with this year's show! We are looking for hard working students to help out with the
set design for this year's production of Willy Wonka Kids. There will be a very short meeting
today (Thursday) in rm. 56 to discuss our plans. Last year's crew is also welcome to come and
help
It's the day you've been waiting for, HMS. No - not your birthday. No - not the Halloween
Dance. No - not picture retake day. OK - maybe you haven't been waiting for it. It's just like a

first meeting of the year. The meeting takes place after school in the cafeteria. See Mr. Langin
with questions and emotional concerns.

Attention Musical Theater Members: If you were not at practice this week, we talked about a
new Big Buddies program where every MTC middle schooler can sponsor a Manoa elementary
performer in their show and be their "number one fan". If you are interested in becoming a big
buddy, please see Ms. Stump or Ms. Psitos! The list is filling up quickly, and we want every
Manoa performer to have a big buddy sponsor!!
We still have the headphones that were found in the 6th grade hallway and this house key that

Yesterday the 7th Grade Field Hockey Team scored another win with a 5 to 0 victory over
Welsh Valley. Paige S scored twice and single goals were scored by Reese B, Maria G, and
Trinity M. Assists were made by Erin H, Lily G and Emma T. Great win girls!!
Yesterday the 8th grade boys' soccer team kept up their winning ways and defeated the Welsh
Valley Dragons 1-0. The game's lone goal came off a corner kick from Ryan D and Duncan R
finished it with a beastly header and Mossed it past the keeper. Excellent defense by the hit
squad helped preserve the shut out.
The 7th grade boys' soccer team shut out Welsh Valley Middle School yesterday 3-0 with all
three goals scored by Allen Cieslak. Great job boys. Remember, no practice this afternoon. Get
ready for Bala on Friday!
All sports equipment, even water bottles, are to be picked up in the main office after school. No
one will be personally notified.
