Parents, Students and Friends –

End of 1st Term
Please note that the end of first term is coming up quickly, the last day of the term will be Friday, October 28th.  At that point, grades will be finalized. With only a few days remaining, we remind all students to check and make sure everything is caught up.  Parents: please encourage students to work with their teachers to get any missing work or tests finished.  Together we can achieve high levels of student success!

Halloween Costumes
As part of our Red Ribbon week this year we are inviting students to dress in a costume on Halloween - Monday, October 31st. Make sure if you choose to wear a costume it follows these requirements: All costumes must meet the same modesty and dress code standards as regular school clothing; all costumes must meet safe school requirements with regards to weapons/violence etc. No masks or painted faces - we need to be able to recognize who each student is. These guidelines are intended to help school function as normally as possible and your cooperation is appreciated.

Wrestling Information Meeting
Attention: All 7th through 9th grade students interested in wrestling. There will be a short information meeting held on Tuesday, October 25th in room 44 (Mr. Mortimer) right after school.  Please talk to Coach Mortimer or Coach J. Brooks with any questions!
