SCHEDULE REMINDER
Don't forget that there is no school next Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Have a blessed Thanksgiving!

CA-BLOOMINGTON BARNES & NOBLE BOOKFAIR IS NOVEMBER 27
On Monday, November 27, up to 25% of purchases made at the Edina Galleria Barnes & Noble will go to CA-Bloomington. Here's how:
• Make your gift or personal list of items such as books, games, cards, stationery, videos, CDs, magazines, puzzles, Godiva chocolate, and specialty teas and coffees.
• Think ahead! Are you a member of a book club? Wouldn’t it be nice to take care of upcoming occasions like birthdays and baby gifts? What about keeping something on hand for host/hostess gifts? If you’re planning a trip or expecting visitors, what about a memento of the Twin Cities or Minnesota?
• On November 27, shop at the Galleria Barnes & Noble, and bring your list and the special voucher (available here or at the store’s cash register on that day). Be sure to give the salesperson your voucher so we receive the credit.
• Need a special item? Barnes & Noble will hold specially-ordered items for up to two weeks.
• If you have a Barnes & Noble membership card, your purchases can still qualify.
Also, gift wrapping will be provided by CA-Bloomington library volunteers on the 27th! Spread the word to friends, family, and co-workers, so we can make the most of this exciting fundraising opportunity. Questions? Call the office at 952-854-0224. We'll see you at Barnes & Noble on November 27!

MIDQUARTER IS NEXT WEEK
Mid-quarter progress reports will be handed out to students in advisory period next Tuesday, November 21. They will also be mailed to your homes before Thanksgiving break. Remember that tuition and fees (including class dues) need to be current for grades to be distributed.
