Don’t forget to drop your newspaper shout-outs in the Falcon Eye box across from the Student Services office.  Newspaper club meets today after school in the Falcon Lab.

Wow… The “Be REAL” logo contest was well received.  Over 150 students entered a drawing and they are INCREDIBLE!!  Because the drawings are so incredible, we have asked an outside artist to come in and select the top 12-15 entries based on creativity, artistic ability, originality and reproducibility.  These entries will be displayed on art boards in the cafeteria for the All-School Voting on April 8th and 9th.  The student body will have a chance to vote for their favorite logo. Good Luck to Everyone who has entered!

Reminder:  When you enter the building, you need to turn your cell phone off and store it in your locker.  It is important that it is off and not on vibrate during the school day.  So…at this time…if you have your cell phone with you, please turn it off and take it to your locker.
