Next TUESDAY, Linganore High School will join schools all over the nation for MIX IT UP DAY in the CAFETERIA! It’s a chance to meet new people, make new friends, and celebrate our diversity by sitting someplace new for one day.

Here’s how it works…  When you enter the cafeteria you’ll be given a LIFESAVER candy at the door.  All you have to do is sit at one of the tables that matches the color.  It’s that simple. You’ll find a fun ice-breaker game at each table.

Remember – Mix it Up Day is NEXT TUESDAY!
