Our Unified PE athletes played in an Intra-team Kickball game on today during 6th Period Flex.

The game was a nailbiter with the White Team defeating the Black Team 18-15!

We had the opportunity to deliver the wheelbarrows that were generously donated by Battlefield families to the Warrior Retreat at Bull Run.

We are so grateful for this local organization that provides respite to Our Warriors and their families.

Battlefield SALC, our student leadership class, assembled a brunch for our local first responders. We served various amounts of officers, fire fighters and EMT's with donuts and coffee to show our appreciation of them for all they do for our community!

Underclassmen:

Underclassmen are encouraged to get a good night’s rest and they should report directly to their Advisory, unless otherwise notified, by 7:25 a.m.

It is important for students to arrive on time with their fully charged laptops. There are no makeup days and times for the PSAT and students arriving late to school may not be admitted to a testing session. Late students will not be admitted to testing rooms once testing has started. In addition, once testing has begun, we will not be able to remove students from a testing session until the test is over, so please plan accordingly.

The schedule for this day will be:

PSAT: 7:25am - 11:25am

5th Block: 11:30am - 1:30pm (lunch will be served this block)

7th Block: 1:35pm - 2:05pm

Seniors

Seniors are NOT to come to school on PSAT day. It is an asynchronous day, with the expectation they will complete activities in Naviance for post-graduation tasks.
