We are officially in the third month of school. The excitement of the begging of the school year is starting to fade, and classes are getting hard. School is getting more stressful and there is a lot to do. Luckily, Memorial has some days off coming soon. On November 17th there is no school for parent-teacher conferences, so make sure to be extra nice to your teachers this week! Many teachers encourage students to come with their parent/guardian to the meeting, however, this is optional. You can take the day to catch up on homework or take the free time to see your friends. The following week is only a two-day week. There is no school on the 23rd, 24th, and 25th. You can spend this time off with your family and friends. Don’t forget to show thanks on Thursday the 24th and get your holiday shopping done on Black Friday, Friday the 25th. Enjoy your time off Spartans!
