School Shorts

Could you please keep an eye out for our school shorts when your kids are cleaning out their lockers?  We bought 48 shorts in September and we are down to 2!  It cost the school approximately $1000.00 for these shorts.  They are navy blue and are made of mesh nylon.  They also have a white NMS logo on the left front leg.  I guess we will have to buy neon green shorts in September so that students don't steal them!

 

Found CD

A CD copy of WOW Hits 2008 was found.  If you are missing this 2 CD set, see Mr. Springer in Rm. 212.
