Congratulations to our Be A Star winners for September! Michael Anthony (10th) - Nomination for Michael was as follows: When Michael is done with his work he seeks out opportunities to help others. Often this involves helping students who are struggling with an assignment or have late work they need to complete. Jonathan Jobson (6th) - Nomination for Jonathon was as follows: Jonathan saw money lying on the floor that another student dropped. He picked up the money and brought it directly to the teacher. He was not sure who dropped it but was discreet about it so no one would claim it was their money when it was not. Also nominated this month were Onna Wachner, Charlie Gamet, Joel Jordon, Olivia Ramirex and Raegan Smith. These students are being recognized for helping to clean up the mess left under the stands at the homecoming football game.

Fall intersession forms are due this week! If you have not turned them in and plan on having your child attend intersession, please get them to us by Friday. If you need a new copy, please get in touch with your child's school office.

After school tutoring for Middle and High School students is available every day after school in the Media Center from 3:15-4:15. Any student who needs extra help or a place to stay caught up on work is welcome to attend. Transportation will be available, but students must have the transportation form filled out and turned into the office before riding the bus. Contact the MS/HS Office for a transportation form.
