For more information see Ms. Mathos in student services.
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
LOQUACIOUS (loh KWAY shus) adj. talking a lot; or to much
Mary is so loquacious that Brenda can sometimes put down the telephone receiver and run a load of laundry while Mary is talking.
The English teacher’s loquacity in class left little time for any of the students to speak, which was fine with most of the students.
