Reminders: We made a mistake in
the Enrichment stickers for the latest grades that were included in your report
cards being mailed home. Anyone with a “C” did not get the sticker. On Tuesday, ALL students must check in with
your Advisory teacher during Advisory time.
If you earned the latest sticker you will have to show it before being
dismissed from Advisory and if you didn’t get one, your Advisory teacher will
have it. Early Release Wednesdays will begin on Feb 6.
