Students, this is a reminder that cell phones are to be placed in the pouches in each classroom and are to remain there for the duration of the period. Use in the classroom, hallway, or restroom is not allowed during the class period and will result in an immediate referral. We are also seeing an increased number of students in the halls using their phones after the bell has rung. This use will be treated as an immediate referral for cell phone use as well as documented as a tardy. We appreciate everyone's efforts, as cell phone use during class is way down.
Students, there has been an increase in the number of blankets, book bags, purses, and coats in class. Students are to keep these items in their lockers during the school day. Do not bring blankets, book bags, purses, or coats to class.
Students, if you have early release you are required to leave the building immediately. Please do not linger in the halls, as there are still classes going on.
“ATTENTION ALL STUDENTS, STARTING THIS YEAR, IF YOU ARE WANTING TO BRING AN OUT OF DISTRICT PERSON TO A DANCE, THEN YOU MUST FILL OUT A DANCE FORM.

Mr. LeGate and Mr. DuPage are going to show you how to have fun and learn something at the same time. Come check us out tonight after school in room 192V.
If you ever get stressed, feel exhausted by every day life, or just don’t want to show up some days, it might be time for a little UTime!
UTime is an after school club for students who want to learn more about wellness and taking care of themselves and their emotions. Topics this year include therapy pets, yoga, mindfulness, essential oils, and much, much more. Beginning today September 7, UTime will meet on Thursdays in the seminar room of the library from 3:15 to 4:45. There is an activity bus to take you home. You do need a permission slip to attend which you can get in the counseling office. Come join us at this fun and informative club, because don’t we all deserve a little UTime?
