T.F. RIGGS HIGH SCHOOL
ANNOUNCEMENTS Friday, December 16, 2011

Attention seniors! Your order & money for your senior signature shirt are due to Mr. Venner TODAY

The SD Discovery Center just took delivery of the Digitalis - our new digital planetarium. If you liked the starlab - oh, boy are you going to LOVE the Digitalis.
We are so eager to show you all the Digitalis can do...but we need to get trained and we need to train lots of volunteers.
Be one of the first to learn how to run this exciting new technology. You'll be able to conduct all sorts of programs about astronomy and more. If you love to talk, you can do the talking. Don't like talking in front of people, maybe you would like to run one of the "canned" programs.
Dec. 19 from 3:30pm to 6:30pm and Dec. 20 from 8:30am to 11:30pm will be the first training opportunities. Anyone 9th grade and up is eligible. We expect to have 1 undergraduate or graduate education credit available. You can come to one session or both.
Teachers - we hope you will consider coming to see how this might be valuable in your classroom. . This is a great opportunity for those who love astronomy to learn more and share your enthusiasm with others.
We hope to train enough volunteers to be able to offer shows to the general public on weekends.
Please RSVP to Kristiemaher@sd-discovery.com if you have questions. OR, if you know you will attend, send your name, e-mail, and phone number plus the session(s) you will participate in.

Students: Don't forget to vote for your friends coloring page. All money is going for mittens and hats for the little ones!! Merry Christmas Headstart!!
