Smith Shark Bites

On Tuesday, April 2 and Wednesday, April 3, we would like to have some Testing "Treats" set up in the lounge for our Smith Staff. Almost everyone's schedule is affected by our important STARR testing days and we would like to have some treats in the lounge for our staff to munch on these two days. It can be anything from a bag of candy to a homemade appetizer to yummy drinks. Anything that might be easy to grab-and-go would work great. Please bring all items to the lounge on Tuesday and/or Wednesday morning. We appreciate the support for our staff who work hard for our students!
