🎙️🖤🤍❤️ WALDRON AREA SCHOOLS – MORNING ANNOUNCEMENTS ❤️🤍🖤
📅 Tuesday, September 22, 2026
GOOD MORNING, WALDRON! ☀️
Happy Tuesday, Spartans! We survived Monday, so clearly we can handle anything now. 😂
Let’s get this day started! 🖤🤍❤️
🍦🍂 NATIONAL ICE CREAM CONE DAY & FIRST DAY OF FALL! 🍂🍦
Today we get TWO reasons to celebrate!
🍦 It’s National Ice Cream Cone Day!
🍂 AND it’s the First Day of Fall!
So apparently today’s dress code is hoodies, crunchy leaves, and an ice cream cone. 😂
Fall has officially arrived, which means cooler weather, changing leaves, football, pumpkin spice everything... and people arguing over whether it’s too early to turn the heat on. 🍁😂
🏐 VARSITY VOLLEYBALL 🏐
Good luck to our Varsity Volleyball Team as they travel to Jackson Christian tonight!
⏰ Game time is 5:30 PM
Play hard, communicate, and represent Waldron with pride!
LET’S GO, SPARTANS! 🖤🤍❤️🏐
📣 LUNCH MEETING
There will be a meeting TODAY during lunch in Mrs. Anderson’s room.
Remember: if you’re supposed to be there, be there!
And yes... you still have to go back to class afterward. We checked. 😂

🔥 FIRE UP CHIPS! 🔥
Any students interested in visiting Central Michigan University will have an opportunity to attend a scheduled campus visit on:
📅 Monday, October 12, 2026

but driving is a whole lot faster. 😂🚗💨
🧠 FUN FACT OF THE DAY!
🍂 Did you know?
The word “autumn” comes from Latin, while the word “fall” became popular because it described the season when leaves “fall” from the trees.
So technically, whoever named it “fall” basically looked outside and said:
“Yep. Leaves are falling. Let’s call it that.” 😂🍁
😂 JOKE OF THE DAY!
What do you give a sick bird,,,,, a tweetment!

Have a Great day and GOOOOOOOO Spartans.

Happy (rainy) Sunday, Spartan families! Stay dry today and be sure to check out this week’s newsletter. There are several important announcements you won't want to miss!

🤯💡 FUN FACT OF THE DAY! 💡🤯
Did you know? 🤔
Play-Doh was originally created as a wallpaper cleaner before it became the colorful modeling compound kids love to play with! 🖍️😲
So basically… Play-Doh went from cleaning walls to creating masterpieces! 😂
😂🤣 JOKE OF THE DAY! 🤣😂
Why did the Play-Doh go to school?
Because it wanted to become a little more well-rounded! 😂🖍️

The Waldron PTT is looking for long tubes, like wrapping paper tubes, for donation. We need them to safely put art work in to transport to the fair. If you could drop them off at the school that would be great! If you have any questions you can email Mrs. DiCenso at nichole.dicenso@waldronspartans.org or Mrs. Russell at ginger.russell@waldronspartans.org. Thank you!

JH football is going to 6man for the rest of year. We have 10 players but only 8 are eligible to play this week. The game on Wednesday has change. Waldron is playing AT Tekonsha starting at 5pm.

🍩🎉 HAPPY NATIONAL CREAM-FILLED DONUT DAY! 🎉🍩

Good morning, Spartans! 🖤🤍❤️

Today is National Cream-Filled Donut Day! 🍩😋

That means somewhere out there, a donut is having a very important day. 😂

Whether you like chocolate, vanilla, Boston cream, or pretty much anything with a delicious filling in the middle, today is the perfect excuse to celebrate one of the world's greatest breakfast inventions!

Just remember: Donuts are delicious… but unfortunately, they do not count as a balanced breakfast. Nice try, though! 😂🍩

🏐🔥 SPARTAN VOLLEYBALL! 🔥🏐

🧺🫧 LAUNDRY DETERGENT FUNDRAISER! 🫧🧺

Need laundry detergent?
Know someone who does?
Have a pile of clothes that seems to multiply overnight? 👕😂

Find a student from the Class of 2029, 2031, or 2032 and place your order!

You get laundry supplies, and they get support for their class. It's a win-win! 🖤🤍❤️

Because let's be honest…

Laundry may be never-ending, but supporting our Spartans doesn't have to be! 😎🧺

🎓💼 COLLEGE & CAREER FAIR! 💼🎓

📅 Monday, October 5, 2026

🤓💡 FUN FACT OF THE DAY! 💡🤓

Did you know that the first donuts were actually made without the hole in the middle? 🍩

The hole was added later because it helped the donut cook more evenly!

So basically, the hole isn't there just to make donuts look cool…

It's there for science. 🔬🍩😂

😂🎤 JOKE OF THE DAY! 🎤😂

Why did the donut go to the dentist? 🍩🦷

Because it needed a filling! 😂😂

Have a great day...... and GOOOOOO Spartans!🖤🤍❤️

The class with the highest Hungry Howie sales will earn a pizza party at snack time on Thursday, September 24th. ##pizzapartyfun
