Season Ends for JV Tennis
The JV tennis season came to an end today at the district tournament. Nearly every singles and doubles team advanced to the quarterfinals! Out of those, Caleb Isbell (Boys Singles) and Gracin Catterton and Zaylen Kimball (Boys Doubles) advanced to the semifinals. Both would end up losing in the semifinals but Gracin and Zaylen won their 3rd place match to take home the medal! Caleb Isbell played his opponent exceptionally well but ended up settling for 4th in Boys Singles. Congratulations to everyone that went out and played hard all season! Go Dragons!
A Pie For A Smile
Thank you for donating for Operation Smile through the Interact Club! We were able to raise enough money to fund an entire cleft lip operation! You donated enough money so that Mr. Berg had to take a pie in the face!!

A Message From New Tech's Nurse
Dear Parents of Seniors,
Your senior student will be receiving a copy of this consent form for the Texas
Immunization Registry (ImmTrac2) in his/her Government/Economics class soon.
ImmTrac2 is the Texas Immunization Registry and is a free service of the
Texas Department of State Health Services. Immtrac2 is a secure and confidential
service that consolidates immunization records in one convenient location. If your
student is 18, he/she may consent to have his/her immunizations included in the
ImmTrac2 database and will have the opportunity to complete the form in class. If your
student is younger than 18, a parent or legal guardian may grant consent for
participation for that minor by completing the attached form and returning it to the
BNT@W clinic. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you.
April Magnia, RN
