Counselor Announcement
We are not kidding – no more schedule changes. This is not the first time we have made this announcement and hey continue to come in. The time to request changes has passed and counselors are only making changes that come from staff (sports, fine arts. Etc). They will not be responding to other requests. We hope your year is off to a great start! Because of our block schedule if you were to add a class one, it would be like starting a class ten days late.

Tardy and ID Announcement
Make sure you are getting to your classes on time and with an ID, otherwise, you will be sent to the library for tardy slips, temporary IDs, or both. You are given two “free” tardies before being assigned detention; however, if you are not using your time wisely, you could be assigned detention before the end of the week!
Many of you are wearing your ID’s with your picture hidden. This will only cause you to be stopped to show us your ID! To avoid us asking about your ID, please wear your ID on your chest, with your picture facing outward! (No one really looks at those pictures but us anyway!) If you still have not received your ID for some reason, please go to room 102 during second period to pick it up!
