Today is a regular bell schedule

Good morning Explorers, let's remember to have La Joya PRIDE in everything we do!

STUDENT ANNOUNCEMENTS

*Open House
Open House is tonight from 6 - 7:30 pm.  Students and parents are welcome to visit teachers in their classrooms - there is no set bell schedule.  We will also have some wonderful performances from our Orchestra, Choir, and Band groups.  Tacos Galacticos will also be selling tacos, churros, and drinks, courtesy of our La Joya PTSA, from 5 - 7:30 pm.  We hope to see you all there!

* Looking for something to do this Saturday. Come to WIN Academy.  You can play board and computer games with Mr. Saroca, play Sports with Mr. Hunt, or get caught up in math with Ms. Mederos. On top of that, attending helps you makeup an unexcused absence. Sign up through the La Joya website, and encourage a friend to sign up too.

*Band is selling pizza tomorrow, $2 a slice and $1 for a water.

*Builders Club is cancelled for today.
*Dress Code Reminder
As the weather begins to warm, here is a reminder about the Dress Code.  The Visalia Unified School District Student Conduct Code for grades 7-12 reads as follows:  Clothes shall be worn as intended and be sufficient to conceal undergarments which shall be worn and covered at all times.  See-through or fish-net fabrics, halter tops, tube tops, spaghetti straps, off-the shoulder and low-cut tops are not acceptable.  Other types of dress that expose bare midriffs or cleavage are prohibited.  Basketball jersey style tank tops with scooped front, back and armholes are only allowed if worn with a T-shirt with sleeves.  Shirts with cut-off sleeves are not allowed. Hoodies, beanies, or any head gear may not be worn within the classroom.  Cell phones must be turned off and out of sight.

Thursday 4/4
Next week, April 8th through 12th, will be acts of random kindness week (also known as ARK Week) here at La Joya. Throughout the week we will be doing many activities surrounding the idea of kindness. You will receive The Kindness Challenge Handout that will have tasks to complete. If you complete every kindness task and return the challenge handout to room LM3, you can earn five points for your district and you will be given a free District T-Shirt. We will also have dress-up days for each day of the week:

Monday April 8th will be Meme Monday, Spread kindness and positivity through the power of memes. On Monday, dress up as your favorite meme. Remember that the memes you dress up as must be appropriate for school!

Tuesday April 9th will be Team day. Team up for kindness, dress up in your district colors or as your favorite sports team. Support your teams, remember to be kind!

Wednesday April 10th will be Kindness shines day.  Outshine hate and negativity! Wear bright colors, glitter, or neon and radiate positivity.

Thursday April 11th will be Pajama day. Dream of kindness. Show up to school in your favorite pj's. Clothing must adhere to the dress code.

And finally, Friday April 12th is Tourist day. Find kindness within yourself and others. Dress up as a tourist and explore kindness within yourself by wearing hawaiian shirts, fanny packs, socks with sandals, and other tourist attire.

Dress code still applies. Remember to stay kind La Joya, and show your district pride!
