Thanksgiving Break - No Students


Monday is picture retake day. We'll call groups of students who may need to have their picture taken during morning classes. Students need to return their packet I their picture didn't come to their liking or have a picture taken if they were not here the day of pictures.

The new copy machine was delivered to the new teacher work room. It is not operational yet as it needs a network card so that you can send print jobs from your computers. It should be working very soon. Please be patient.

Jan does have a video camera in the library that can be checked out for teacher or classroom use. You will however need the mini DV tapes. It can be checked out by seeing Jan.

We will begin working toward the Holiday Food Drive as soon as we get back from Thanksgiving break. Please prep your advisory students appropriately.

If you have not returned an exterior key to Ruth from a previous weekend please let her know that you have it and will use this coming weekend or turn it in so that others can use it.
