ONE MORE PROCTOR NEEDED: THURSDAY MORNING 5/16 for AP WORLD HISTORY
A million thanks to all our wonderful parents who have stepped up to proctor AP exams!! If you do NOT have a child taking AP World History and you are able to volunteer on May 16th from 7:15am-11:45am, please respond to Lisa Little at l.little@comcast.net to let her know. Thank you!
Students: when you received your 3rd Quarter report card there was a Student Profile document for grades 9 through 11. This required your parents’ attention to update phone numbers, emails, address, etc. The turn in date was due by May 1st even if there were no changes. We are still missing over 1,000 Student Profiles not turned in. Please check at home and return this document to the office right away.
The cafeteria will now open at 7:15 AM for breakfast on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. Students choosing to purchase breakfast will have a choice from a few “grab and go” varieties. Students on Free and Reduced lunch are still eligible for a free breakfast. Start your day our right with a nutritional breakfast!
