Tickets for the dance are for sale during lunch for $5. Tickets will be $7 at the door. Students must have maintained positive behavior for the entire 1st quarter in order to attend the dance.
Parents, if your child attends the dance, please be waiting in the parking lot to pick them up at 8:00. Students who are not picked up promptly will not be allowed to attend other dances. The chaperones will be excited to go home after a long week! :-)
STUDENT LED CONFERENCES
Thank you so much for attending conferences! We always love to have parents join us on campus. If you were not able to attend, please know that you can always reach out to our staff to ask questions or check on the progress of your son or daughter.
PTO THANKS!
Our wonder Parent Teacher Organization provided dinner for our teachers on conference day Sept. 21st. We would like to extend a special THANK YOU to all the PTO members and everyone who donated. The staff certainly appreciated all of the delicious food.
BUS PASSES
Reminder, we are unable to issue bus passes on Fridays due to buses being full since there are no after school activity buses on that day. Thank you for understanding.

Spirit wear is still available in our bookstore. T-shirts are only $12!
TUTORING AND GOAL
Students who stay after school for tutoring must remain in the tutoring classroom until they are picked up by a parent/guardian or get on the activity bus.
