MIDDLE SCHOOL PARTY Dear Middle School Students, Yiddie up Middle School! On Friday, February 13th, arrives the long awaited MS Party! It’s the Sadie Hawkins dance, so it’s time for you beautiful girls to ask the guys. Don’t be shy, just go for it! It’s your time to shine. If you don’t want to ask a guy, that’s okay! Chillax (chill and relax!) and hang out with your buddies! Music, dancing, laughing and fun! Fun is everywhere this MS party. To add to the fun, there will be AMIS (Association for Music in International Schools) students from all over the world! Isn’t that exciting? Imagine all the friends you’ll make, and of course, all the fun you’ll be having! It will be a Middle School party like never before, and you will regret it if you don’t come! Permission slips will be given out in Homebase a week before the party, so hang in there, Middle School! Tickets are 100 pesos, and we’ll sell them from February 11 (Wednesday) to 13 (Friday), right outside the cafeteria during lunch. You can also buy them at the door, right before the party on February 13. There are no paper tickets this time, so don’t be afraid to buy your tickets early—we’ll have a confidential list to check off! -Your one and only Middle School Student Council.

FREE CONCERT PASSES ARE AVAILABLE AT THE FINE ARTS OFFICE. FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED.
