Jaguars each day during Homeroom, we will continue conducting our collection for Haitian Relief. Currently, we have collected a little over $2000. Thank you to the Senior Class for giving all proceeds to the relief fund.
Additionally, each morning and afternoon in the loop (pick-up and drop-off areas) donations will be accepted. Stay tuned to further announcements regarding what you can do to support Haiti Relief.

January 25th – 29th is Literacy Week. As we celebrate Literacy week, we are asking all 1st Period Homeroom classes to participate in the “Doors to Literacy” door decorating contest. Classes are asked to share quotes and images from books they have read. The winning homeroom will be invited to attend Mr. Parker’s Café-Read-A-Latte on Friday. All doors must be completed by 10:00 AM Thursday, January 28th.
Look for Literacy Features throughout the week on your morning announcements.

Literary Quote of the day:
Books are the carriers of civilization. Without books, history is silent, literature dumb, science crippled, thought and speculation at a standstill. Barbara Tuchman

Students purchase your wristband for MLEC’s Dress Down Day brought to you by your PTSA. Dress Down Day will take place this Friday, January 29th listen for more details, rules, and regulations. Wristbands are $2.

Students are reminded to come to school each day on time! Students if you are absent, remember that 5 unexcused absences in an annual course, or 3 unexcused absences in a semester course, will result in a no credit (N/C) for the class.  MLEC is 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 being issued, and 3 unexcused absences in a semester course will equal six absences and also result in a no credit.  Remember if you are absent you MUST bring a note and receive an admit to excuse your absence. Admits are issued in the Student Services Office prior to the start of school each day and during lunch and after school in the Main Office with Ms. Wellman. Do not be absent unnecessarily
Students arriving tardy to school must sign in at the Tardy Center. Students with excessive tardies will be required to serve an Administrative Detention.  BE ON TIME!!! AND COME TO SCHOOL EVERYDAY!!! 

The Principal’s Word of the Day is
PROPITIOUS (pruh PISH us) adj. marked by favorable signs or conditions.
Rush hour is not a propitious time to drive in the city.
The early negotiations between the union and the company had been so propitious that no one was surprised when the contract was announced well before the strike deadline.
