The search is on to find this year's top advertiser! It's time again to create a slogan for the 2008 FCAT pouches that will motivate us all.  Black and white illustrations may accompany the slogan.  All slogans must be submitted to Mrs. Ambas-Viada in E228 by December 21, 2007.  The winner will have his or her design printed on all of this year's FCAT pouches and will also receive a Gift Certificate to Best Buy.

Students with absences, remember if you have 5 unexcused absences in an annual course, or 3 unexcused absences in a semester course, you will receive a no credit for the class.  We are in a block schedule, therefore 5 unexcused absences in an annual course WILL result in 10 unexcused absences and WILL result in a no credit issued, 3 unexcused absences in a semester course will equal six and a no credit.  Remember if you are absent you MUST bring a note and receive an admit in student services to excuse your absence.  Do not be absent unnecessarily.  Students arriving tardy to school will be required to serve an Administrative Detention.  BE ON TIME!!! AND COME TO SCHOOL EVERYDAY!!! Students with perfect attendance for the entire school year will have the opportunity to win a very special prize. If you have any questions please speak to Mrs. Forteza.

The Principal’s Word of the Day is

PRECIPITOUS (pri SIP i tus) adj. steep

Precipitous means like a precipice or cliff. It and precipitate are very closely related, as you probably guessed. But they don’t mean the same thing, even though precipitous is often used to mean the same thing as precipitate.

A mountain can be precipitous, meaning either that it is steep or that it comprises lots of steep cliffs.
