Thank you to all the parents/guardians for coming out to Parent Teacher Conferences, the teachers all enjoyed getting the opportunity to talk with you and share how your child is doing in their class. As always don't hesitate to reach out at anytime during the school year if you have any questions or concerns.

We are in our 2nd 9 weeks please help your child continue to stay on top of their grades and their homework. Students will need to have assignments turned in and grades brought up by end of day on Wednesday to be eligible for the Monthly Celebration and Game and Dance Night. Students can't have any F's, no more than 5 missing assignments and can't have more than 2 trips to the office during the month of October to qualify.

As always we offer ASAP on Mondays and Wednesdays after school until 4:30pm.

This week we will have our Spirit Week in honor of Red Ribbon Week. The flyer is below!

Mr. Dziewior and his Musical Theater class students are in need of some shoe boxes. If you have any that you could send to school that would be greatly appreciated!

Red Ribbon Week

Next week, we will celebrate RED RIBBON WEEK! While Red Ribbon Week has typically been associated with a strong anti-drug message, I always like to broaden this and encourage all-around healthy habits that include self-care, exercise, sleep, screentime monitoring, etc. The fun Spirit Days that we have planned will focus on a few of these areas! At the end of next week I will share some of the exciting things that we have planned to bring awareness to MAKING HEALTHY CHOICES!
