A healthy snack idea for Sunday!
When asked what trays of blueberry muffins went first this morning the Seahawk or Patriot ones the Manager at Provo High said this...
"It has to be the Seahawks. I had a teacher send out an email that it was Seahawk Wednesday today and it included a picture of his bone skeleton (I think he or she must have been some sort of Science or Health teacher) wearing a Seahawk shirt and hat. So I sent out a picture of the Seahawk helmet with fruit and told everyone it was being served today in the cafeteria. I have already had 2 teachers come down for a bowl of fresh Seahawk fruit. Ha ha I'm waiting for a Patriot fan to speak up and then I will suddenly become a Patriot fan and send out the picture of the Patriot fruit. Kind of Fun."
Getting our students excited about fresh fun fruits IS exciting, but it is great to get our teachers, staff and administrators on board too!
