Good afternoon!
Today is the last day of the first quarter! Grades will be finalized and ready for your viewing on Friday, October 27th.
Reminder that there is not school for students this coming Monday or Tuesday! We welcome back all students to kick off the 2nd quarter!
Lost & found- If you have been in the building you will see the very large collection of Lost & Found- including 30 coats, 10 lunch boxes, 60 sweatshirts and 32 water bottles! I am speechless! This is located directly outside of the cafeteria. Please swing by and collect items as we do not hold items all year. Left items will be donated at the end of each quarter. We will remove all items by next Friday, October 27th.
