Admission to all will be FREE throughout the day.

We currently have a limited number of tables available for vendors/crafters. There will be no table-fee for interested school clubs, organizations, nonprofits, etc. Please contact me asap, if interested. We do not need additional food vendors and hope to avoid duplicate offerings. If you are a vendor, crafter, artisan, and may be interested, we are seeking to provide a diverse roster of quality products. Tables are $20 and $35 for tables of either 6 or 12 feet. For information, call or text 304-374-7474. Again, only a limited number of spaces remain.

All juniors and seniors planning to attend prom will need to pick up a permission form and information sheet from Mrs. Michaud in room 226.

Any junior or senior who would like to fundraise to reduce the cost of their prom ticket can sell Chestnut Hill Candles. See Mrs. Michaud in room 226 to pick up a form. The sale runs from February 11-27.

1. Reminder for all Juniors to please get your MCV4 vaccines for senior year.

"What makes the difference between wishing and realizing our wishes? Lots of things, of course, but the main one, I think, is whether we link our wishes to our active work. It may take months or years, but it's far more likely to happen when we care so much likely to happen when we care so much that we'll work as hard as we can to make it happen. And when we're working toward the realization of our wishes, some of our greatest strengths come from the encouragement of people who care about us. "
