Impact Aid
Eagles,
This week brings a very important annual task: Distribution & Collection of Impact Aid forms.
Impact Aid forms will be distributed to all students in 2nd period classes on Tuesday, Sep. 20. (CTE students will receive their forms in 5th period that day.) It is critical that all forms are returned with a parent's signature within the week!
There are a few incentives in play for students who return their forms quickly:
*Any student who returns the form, completed & w/parent signature, within 24 hours of receiving it, will receive a voucher to clear 4 Type II violations from the database, redeemable at any time this school year.
*Any 2nd period class with 100% of their forms completed & turned in by Friday, Sep 23, will receive a pizza party at a later date.
Last year, we succeeded at getting every one of our Impact Aid forms turned in. Let's get the job done again!
Thanks!

First Day of School, Aug. 22
Eagles,
Unless you're still in total denial, you're probably wondering where to go and what to do on the first day of school, Monday, August 22nd.
Here's the plan:
When you arrive on campus, report to the Big Gym to pick up a green copy of your schedule. (If you already picked up a white copy at Pre-Registration, you still need a green copy!)
Once you have your schedule, here's what you do:
9th Grade: Report to the Auditorium. Your day will begin with an
assembly, then you will be dismissed to 1st period.
Grades 10 - 12: Report to your 1st period class.
The 2011-2012 school year is going to be a great one, and I'm glad you're going to be a part of it!
