OUR LADY ACADEMY MORNING ANNOUNCEMENTS
Friday, November 10, 2023
Good Morning
OLA! Today is Friday, November 10, 2023.
Please stand for our morning prayer as we remember that we are in the presence of God.
Tomorrow, we will honor our Veterans, who have served our
country with the highest respect.
When Francis Scott Key wrote the “Star Spangled Banner” almost 200 years ago, he called America, “the land of the free and the home of the brave.” Those words are as true today as they were then. Throughout this Nation’s history, America’s soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines and coast guardsmen have bravely answered the call to defend our freedom, to aid our friends and allies, and to turn back aggressors. We can never fully repay our debt of gratitude to those American service members who died or were wounded in battle. We can, however, recognize and thank the veterans living today.
In the name of the Father, and
of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Our Father, Who art in heaven Hallowed be Thy
Name; Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive
us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not
into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Please remain standing for the Pledge:
I pledge Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

Our Alpha Omega Robotic
Team will have a booth at the Courthouse on Main Street for the Stennis Day
in the Bay, tomorrow from 12:00 to 5:00 p.m.
Next week, the Student
Council will be sponsoring a turkey teacher contest. Council members have
placed a turkey for each teacher in the gap. We sell “feathers” to be added to
the turkey for $1. For $2, a person can take a feather off a turkey. Student Council
members will sell the feathers, keep track of the number sold, and glue the
feathers on daily. On the Thursday before Thanksgiving, they will announce the
name of the teacher with the most feathers–the turkey teacher–who will proudly
wear a turkey suit on Friday!

NJHS is hosting a Penny Wars fundraiser for the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence! The turkey banks for each grade can be found in front of Mrs. Tolar's room. Whichever grade donates the most money will earn a cozy free dress day of sweatpants, appropriate t-shirts, sweatshirts, and tennis shoes next Friday! Every penny counts as one point for that grade, and silver coins or paper bills take away a point. You can put paper bills or silver coins in other grades' turkeys to target another grade. Have fun!
Today is the last day to order your SADD sweatshirt. See Camille Boudreaux or Mrs. Haas, if you do not have the link to order.
The cafeteria will not be serving lunch NEXT Friday, November 18th. An email was sent out to all students to place their order for a Pizza Hut Personal Pan Pizza. You MUST place your pizza order by the end of the day TODAY. If you do not place your order for a pizza, please plan to bring a lunch from home next Friday. Please Note, the faculty will not be ordering pizza, we are having a Thanksgiving meal in the teacher’s lounge instead.
