This week is Ally Week. What is Ally Week, you ask? Each October, the Gay Lesbian and Straight Education Network and students across the country, often as members of Gay-Straight Alliances (GSAs) or similar student clubs, celebrate Ally Week. Here at VVHS we are focusing this week on educating our school community on ways to be better allies. What is an Ally?  We refer to allies as people who support the LGBTcommunity by advocating against the bullying and harassment that LGBT youth face in school. An ally works to end oppression by supporting and advocating for people who are stigmatized, or treated unfairly because of who they are. Anyone can be an ally! What can you do?  During lunch, come to the A hall eatery and sign our Ally Poster, create an Ally sign and take a selfie and then tag @vvhs_gsa on Instagram or use hashtags #AllyWeek  #BetterAllies.


SOPHOMORE BOARD: Class of 2017 will be having a class meeting in A101 on Wednesday at lunch.  All sophomores are encouraged to attend!


OPERATION SMILE will be meeting on Tuesday at lunch in A101.  We will be discussing the upcoming car wash and a Leadership Conference.  Everyone is invited!


ATTENTION HAWKS:  We heard you squawk!  An overwhelming number of students requested that we continue providing Mario's pizza instead of Pizza 9.  Mario's it is!  We are also now serving a rotating variety of frozen yogurt flavors!  We look forward to serving you soon!


BOWLING is still looking for a little more participants - and definitely looking for more freshmen to take up the challenge and be the future of the bowling team by joining up now.  Coach Hampel also hopes that the few bowlers from last year who have not yet made it out will be out this week. Finally a reminder that Maj. Campbell has registration packages for anyone who needs them. Come on Hawks - - - -LETS ROLL!!!


MATH NATIONAL HONORS SOCIETY will meet directly outside of room H217 for a quick meeting at the beginning of lunch today.
