A few notes:
The 3rd quarter ends on Thursday, March 21. Please check your student’s grades to make sure they do not have any missing assignments.
Registration for Spring sports is underway. Spring sports will begin on Monday, April 1st. All student equipment (softball, baseball, etc…) can be stored in the cafeteria conference room during the school day and can be picked up by students as they leave for their sport at the end of the school day.
Please remind your student to clear their iPad of any non school-related items including pictures and videos as we prepare for testing in April. We need to have space on the iPad devices in order to accommodate testing downloads.
Students are not allowed to bring soft-sided water bottles to school. Water bottles need to have hard sides.
