80 years ago this morning, Pearl Harbor, a U.S. naval base in Pearl Harbor Hawaii was the target of a surprise attack by the Japanese military.  This event brought the United States into World War II.  The next day, Hitler declared war on the United States, and from then on, the United States entered into World War II.  Forty Oregon men died in Pearl Harbor.  This included 18 year old John Burgess:

From the deck of the West Virginia, the crew could see saw two huge flashes of fire as the USS Arizona was hit and a bomb detonated in a powder magazine. Burning debris began raining on the West Virginia's quarterdeck. Somewhere down in the darkness inside the West Virginia that morning was John Burgess, who was unable to make it out to safety. He is buried at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Honolulu.

Over 410,000 Americans died in World War II.  It remained the highest death toll among all the wars, including the Civil war, for combat deaths. Take a moment to think about those men and women who died for our country.

Come support our Girls Basketball team tonight as we take on Sunset High School here at Sprague. JV starts at 5pm and Varsity at 6:30pm. Tickets are currently cash ONLY. $7 adults and $5 for students. ASB cards get students in free. Let’s go Oly’s!!

For more information, check out the flyers posted around the building, or see Ms. Atkinson.

Olys, we need your help! With the holidays coming up, leadership is working to create food boxes with grocery gift cards for families in need. We have donation boxes stationed in several classrooms, but more importantly, we have money donation jars in Ms. Atkinson’s classroom (133) so that we can provide families with much needed grocery gift cards. ANY amount, no matter how small, helps, so bring that loose change in. This is a chance for your class to show spirit and earn class points by giving back to those in our community. For more information, check out the flyers posted around the building, or see Ms. Atkinson.
