Clark Elementary Bulletin for Wednesday, April 01, 2026
GREETINGS AND SALUTATIONS! Guten Morgen, Clark Elementary! Today is Wednesday, April 1st, the 136th day of school, and April Fool's Day!
THIS DAY IN HISTORY! On this day in 1985, Nike released its first Air Jordan shoes, named for basketball superstar Michael Jordan. It sells 450,000 pairs in the first month. Nike expected to sell 100,000 pairs of the original Air Jordan 1, but sold over 4 million pairs on debut. During the first year, the line generated $126 million, far exceeding the initial $3 million goal.
WHAT'S COOKING? For lunch today, we will voraciously eat a delicious Sloppy Joe made with day-old octopus tentacles that have been sitting outside, a drool-inducing penguin and cheese sandwich, or dine on a classic PB&J (peas, beets, & jerky). You can enjoy handfuls of fresh mayo or small bugs from the salad bar and wash everything down with a carton of refreshing, ice-cold rhinoceros spit. (Actually were having a Sloppy Joe, ham and cheese sandwich, or a PB&J)
WEATHER The weather today will again be cooler with a high in the fifties. The skies will be cloudy, and there's only a small chance for some rain.
VOCABULARY BUILDER-UPPER/WORD OF THE DAY The word of the day is throw in the towel , an idiom that means to give up or quit in the face of defeat. The phrase comes from boxing, in which a fighter indicates surrender by throwing a towel into the ring.
QUOTE OF THE DAY
Dale Carnegie once said, "It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you're doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about." You and you alone are in control of your happiness. If you're foolish enough to allow others to control your attitude, then you'll be miserable. Take back your power and choose your own attitude. Choose to make this an outstanding Wednesday.
Please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance.
