Dear Chap Community,


There is a rumor that this Friday, October 30th, is a senior ditch day. This is not a recognized or sponsored activity. Students not in class will be marked as an unexcused absence unless their parent excuses them from class and, as with any unexcused absence, they will run the risk of not being permitted to make up the work.


As always, we appreciate your partnership and the value we all put on school attendance.
