End of the Quarter

Third quarter ends on March 11.  Students need to get their assignments in and focus on keeping up their grades.

Thursday- Dungeons and Dragons Club

Theft Issues

We are having a lot of theft issues lately.  Airpods, phones and money are being taken when students set their items down and walk away from them.  Please do not bring valuable items to school.  If you do, keep your eyes on them at all times and be aware that if you take your eyes of off them, they might walk away and sometimes they cannot be recovered.  Bring items at your own risk.

Washington DC Meeting for 7th grade Parents

Parents of 7th graders who are interested in their child going on the Washington DC trip in 8th grade, are invited to attend a parent meeting on March 11th at 6:00 PM.  This is for 7th grade parents only.
