Due to the weather becoming colder we will be allowing students to wear beanies and headbands. Please remember they must be free of logos or decorations. The only logo that will be allowed will be our school logo. The beanies must be a single color white, black, grey, brown, tan or gold. This flexibility only applies to protection from the cold, not for hats. They may only be worn outdoors.

Students, please be aware that we will be conducting tardy sweeps.  It is important that you are in your classrooms ready to learn when the tardy bell rings.  For this reason, we will be running frequent sweeps.  If you are tardy to class during a sweep you will be serving an after school detention.  Please avoid this by getting to class on time.
