Today is National Laundry Day! Woohoo! 

Would you rather text 5 hours late or never get replies?

The lunch for today is … Beef Pepperoni Calzone, Beef Tacos with shredded cheese & Doritos or Tostitos, or a Buffalo Chicken Entree. Yum! The side dish for today is steamed corn. 

The weather today is … wiiiiiiiindy! Flower pots were tipping over, trash cans were blowing down the street. Crazy! The high today is 55 and the low is 41. 

Tomorrow is ANOTHER testing day! If you are scheduled to take the American History test tomorrow, please arrive at 7:45am with a CHARGED CHROMEBOOK. If you do not have to take a test tomorrow, you need to be at school by 10:40 AM at the latest. 

Seniors it's time to vote for your senior superlatives!  Voting will close on May 2nd.  The google form is in your google cohort classroom. You will need to be able to list first AND last names for anyone you want to nominate.  

Attention NHS members!! Our next meeting will be held TODAY April 15 at 3:30 in room 701. See Ms. Rado or Mrs. Ruthers if you have any questions.

Current juniors and sophomores.....NOW is the last chance to complete the lockout request form for next school year.  Counselors are beginning to work on your schedules and if we do not know you are interested in lockout, we cannot work your schedule around that.  This means you may not receive the lockout you request or even at all.  Don't delay!  Complete the Google Form linked in your Cohort Google Classroom under scheduling TODAY!

Attention all seniors!!  To recognize our amazing seniors as you "Spring" into graduation, your senior class advisors, officers, and leadership team want to give you a spring theme gift.  On Monday, April 21st during your lunch period, stop by the desk near the office doors, show your student I.D. and pick up your gift.
