School Ops:
·
Thank
you for a smooth ACT test administration Tuesday; and for your cooperation with
the device check. Anyone who did not
have your device checked needs to take it to Mr. Sharp in D212 as soon as you
get on campus. You will drop off your
device and he will return it as soon as possible – which may not be for a while
since he no longer has help. The longer
you wait to bring in your device the longer he will be instructed to hold it
before it is returned. Get it done!

SGA
Dance-A-Thon will be held Thursday, March 14, 5:30 – 8:30 in the Commons. SGA members will be selling tickets in the

their senior dues the cost of a single ticket was included. Prom sales will END March 15, which is FRIDAY. There

Students– start planning ahead – Worlds Fair Park Drive
will be down to one lane today, so parents can’t wait along the front of
Holiday Inn Exhibition Center and closed completely Thursday/Friday. You will
not be able to enter from the south end of the park and it will be closed past
our parking gate. Blackstock Lot parkers
need to park along the edges of the International lot. Friday will be crowded in WFP – plan ahead. Share rides or consider the school bus for
the day. Tardy due to traffic is not
excused.
