STUDENT BEHAVIOR CHOICES AT THE END OF THE YEAR
I hate to bring this type of information to the whole student body, but it is important to understand. Some may have the thought process that discipline does not carry over through the summer; or maybe at the end of school there is nothing that can be done because summer is here and school is out. THAT IS FAR FROM THE TRUTH! You can be disciplined at the end of this year that carries over into next year. For example, if you were suspended for five days on the last day of school...your suspension isn’t over until the fourth day of the next school year making you ineligible for any summer activities associated with school. MAKE GOOD CHOICES!!!
ED Expo Registration
Everyone should be registered for Ed Expo. If not, see Mrs. Jameson ASAP
Spring Fling
Spring Fling for 8th graders will be on May 10th at the waterpark. This will include unlimited go carts, mini golf, laser tag, hotdogs, chips and sodas. The arcade will also be open and this also includes a t-shirt.. All for the price of $15. T-shirts are your ticket in the door and must be worn. They go on sale this week during lunch!
Perfect Attendance MAP Reward
