…And now for a moment in Black History…
On this day in 1936 football star Jim Brown was born on St. Simon's Island, Georgia. He broke offensive back records for the Cleveland Browns, starred in films, and founded the Negro Industrial and Economic Union. Also, in 1963 Michael Jordan, who is considered one of the greatest basketball players to ever play the game, was born in Brooklyn, NY and raised in Wilmington, NC. Jordan led the Chicago Bulls to six NBA championships.
This moment in Black history was sponsored by Senior Basketball Jam Championship Team.
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!!!
