NCP: Pepsi Grant!

so, recently, via FC, my school notified me that they were in the running for a Pepsi Grant worth some couple thousand dollars, and i would like to put up this link to help them out (you can vote daily!!)

our school is getting budget cuts this year, and i will rant about that... right... now.

so, this year, we are more then a few thousand dollars short for funding.

every year, we have our cubby walk, which raises money for the school, but apparently that's not enough. at all.

our JV teams got cut this year, meaning no varsity sports.

many, many teachers will be let go of (i belive it was every one out of four teachers), so our class sizes will get bigger. which sucks, because one of the things i LOVE about NS is that our class sizes are relatively small.

and we were hoping for PCs for the entire school next year--i don't know how that is gonna happen. this year freshmen could choose to have them for an extra couple hundred bucks. and they are placed in their own classes so they do not have a priviledge over other students. nice. and they even use them for PE!!

i would love to get one for school. they would help out so much since i always forget hmwk @ home.

i mean, we seem like a new, rich-people school, but that's just cause our shool is new (it's only 10 years old! it's prob the newest CPS HS!!). that's why.

but our pepsi ranking went from 200th to 46th in a week, and we are far from being close to winning, so i will for sure do my part and vote daily.

it's SO easy!!
