Be Respectful, Be Excellent, Be Accepting, Be a Leader

 

This is a W Day.

 

ALL GRADES:  Student Council – this Thursday, April 19 we will be having another student council meeting.  Please be in Mrs. Duran's room (109) at 7 AM.  See you there!  We are taking a Student Council photo so don't miss it.

 

Current 7th grade National Junior Honor Society students - Applications for next year's officers are due to Mrs. Sutterer this Friday, April 20.  Please pick up the application in Mrs. Sutterer's room 212 and return it completed to that same room.  The positions open are President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer.  The winners of each position will be announced at the May 4th NJHS meeting and they will serve their term next school year.

 

National Junior Honor Society will host its annual Induction Ceremony on Thursday April 26.  The ceremony is for all current members and those who have been recently selected.  Family members and friends are also encouraged to attend.  This will be located in the cafeteria from 6:30-7:30.  All students attending should wear appropriate clothing for the formal event (try to avoid jeans and t-shirts) and should arrive to the library at 6:00 p.m.  Check-in with Mrs. Sutterer if you are unable to attend.

 

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.
