STUDENT NOTES

New Announcements:

*         This is a reminder for all EDHS students to return textbooks for semester classes such as, Economics and Health, and all English novels checked out during first semester. Books can be returned at the front office gate from 8 AM to 4 PM starting now through Friday, December 18th. There will be bins placed out by the front office gate to place the books in. It is important to return first semester books by the end of finals so we can check them out to second semester students in January 2021. Thank you for your help, El Diamante Library staff.
Previous Announcements:

*         The El Diamante High Blood Drive is on Monday, December 28th, 2020 from 9AM-6PM. It will take place at the Visalia Donor Center located at 2245 W. Caldwell Ave in Visalia. For more information, see the flyer attached or visit donateblood.org. Here are 5 reasons why you should give blood over the Winter Break:

     *   There's a blood shortage. This 2020 holiday season, the American Red Cross is facing a severe blood shortage. Blood donations are currently being distributed faster than they are coming in, even though patients and their families are counting on blood to save their lives in the event of a medical emergency.
     *   It's become a yearly tradition. El Diamante has always participated in a blood drive. Start one of your own holiday traditions and give back.
     *   It's what Christmas and the holiday season is all about. Helping others, giving gifts. Give the gift of life when you donate blood.
     *   It's a great excuse to once again prove we are the best compared to MW, RHS, and GW.
     *   You get a free shirt and movie pass for donating! 'Nuff said!



*         COS Concurrent Enrollment Spring 2021 registration is now open and will be open through January 10th, 2021.
