Specialists' Day 5 • Kindergarten Day 2
Please do not prop open any of the building doors at any time. The door by the varsity gym has been propped open the last few days around 2:30 because those doors are locked until 2:56. This is for student safety. Some students leave the building that qualify for honors SOS and return for their sports practices or games. This is fine, but when you return, please enter through the main office doors or wait until the bell at 2:56. Those doors being propped open compromise building security. We realize this is inconvenient, but it is better than the more drastic step of eliminating honors SOS. Thank you for your cooperation.
High school students, please do not use the stairs outside Mr. Roberts' room to go up or down during the morning and the lunch period. Please go up and down the stairs at the end of the hallway. The reason for this is that there are a lot of elementary students in the hallway at that same time and keeping high school on the end makes it safer and less congested there. Thanks for understanding.
The Homecoming Apparel Ordering Website closes TODAY. Don't forget to order your shirt! Links were sent to your email on September 15th.

There will be a SADD meeting today in Mr. Roberts's room during lunch.
