Today is a White D Day
Detention is in room 214
Happy Spring!
All Juniors and Seniors participating in the Adopt a Home Base Mentoring program should be in attendance at a short meeting on Monday, in room 225 with Mr. Romanow at 2:00pm.
The planning committee for the Coffeehouse would like to thank students for their amazing performances, staff for coming and helping with everything we asked, and the audience members for supporting their peers and making the event a success. We raised over $1,100 which will be used for scholarships. Cheers to you all!
Attention seniors who sold cinnamon rolls! Please don't forgot that the cinnamon orders need to be picked up by you TODAY (3/20) right after school in the lower cafeteria. Please do not forget because they will need to stay cold and get to freezer shortly after you pick them up. Thank you so much to those who sold the packets. Your efforts are greatly appreciated!
Sadly, the Interact dodge ball tournament has been postponed until further notice. There were not enough teams signed up but we hope to have the event later in the spring if possible. Thanks to all of those who showed interest!
The annual library book swap is the week of March 31st. Donate your good used books to the library for the book swap cart, and take books that you want from the cart starting March 31st.
