Students who have lockers (9th graders and those who requested them) are reminded to make sure that your locker is cleaned out before the end of the year. Lockers will be emptied over the summer and any leftover items will be thrown away or donated. Please be sure to empty items from PE lockers as well. Any items left in lockers will be thrown away or donated.

The same will be true with our Lost & Found items. Items leftover in the summer will be thrown away or donated, so please check the Lost & Found before leaving school if you think you have lost an item.
