Once again, The Interact Club is participating in the Salvation Army Holiday Angel network. As such, Interact asks that staff, students, and parents help bring joy to the life of an underprivileged or foster child. Times are hard for in this tough economic situation; but think of the bit of happiness you can bring a child, with one small gift. Please see an Interact club member, or Mrs. Biddings-E202, for more information.

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. Remember if you are absent you MUST bring a note and receive an admit to excuse your absence. DO NOT GIVE YOUR NOTE TO YOUR HOMEROOM TEACHER. 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. Cheron. Do not be absent unnecessarily.
Students arriving tardy to school must sign in at the Tardy Center in the C Cafeteria. Students with excessive tardies will be required to serve an Administrative Detention. BE ON TIME!!!

The Principal’s Word of the Day is
BELITTLE (bi LIT ul) v. to make to seem little; to put someone down
We worked hard to put the fire out, but the fire chief belittled our efforts by saying he wished he had brought some marshmallows.
