Any students that have chromebooks need to bring them to the high school office today.
Junior High will begin MAP testing Tuesday, April 26th during 1st - 2nd hour. We will not have bells during this time. All hallways need to be as quiet as possible. Please do not use your locker between 1st and 2nd hour in any hallway. There will be students testing throughout the building. During passing times, all students need to be respectful of those that are testing and keep the halls as quiet as possible. Students will still need to be to class on time, we will just be using the clocks instead of bells. Thank you in advance for your help.
