Daily Bulletin
Clark Elementary Bulletin for Tuesday, October 13, 2026
GREETINGS AND SALUTATIONS! Good morning, Clark Elementary! Today is Wednesday, October 14, the 35th day of school, and Be Bald and Be Free Day!
THIS DAY IN HISTORY! On this day in 1947, U.S. Air Force Captain Chuck Yeager became the first person to fly faster than the speed of sound.
WEATHER Today will feel like a normal day in October. The high will be in the mid-sixties, the skies will be cloudy, and the day will be Falltastic.
VOCABULARY BUILDER-UPPER/WORD OF THE DAY Today's vocabulary word of the day is resilient (re-sil-ient), which is an adjective that describes someone or something strong and able to recover from damage quickly. Formed from the Latin verb resilire, "to leap back," a resilient person can recover quickly from an illness or a bad experience.
WHAT'S COOKING? For lunch today, we will devour a flame-grilled hamburger with or without a slice of Wisconsin-aged cheddar or a classic PB&J. We have loads of fresh fruit and veggies to munch on and cartons of refreshing, ice-cold milk to quench your thirst.
QUOTE OF THE DAY
Kara Lawson, the head coach of Duke's women's basketball team, once said, "Make yourself a person who handles hard well. Not someone who is waiting for the easy. Because if you have a meaningful pursuit in life, it will never be easy." You have to convince yourself that you can do hard things. You have to convince yourself that you are strong enough to overcome obstacles in your life. Choose to make this Wednesday an outstanding day.
Please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance.
