General News!
Happy February!
We would like to thank all of you who joined us for STEM Family Night! It was wonderful to see such a great turn out, and for the students to be able to share all of their hard work. We hope you enjoyed the evening, too!
We also had a terrific turnout for our Scholastic Book Fair. Hopefully you were able to get some of those great reads!
Last week, the students were asked to start thinking about their Freshman Academy registration forms.Thank you for the help with this quick turn around of information. Today students were sent home with a completed copy of their core classes, along with the elective courses they selected.Please double check these choices to be sure they have been indicated correctly. Also attached is a letter about final registration night at the high school. Please check whether you would like to attend this meeting or not, and sign and return it to school by Friday, Feb. 7th. If you will not be attending registration night, please return the schedule also to ensure your selections are honored.

It's never too late to start taking advantage of Zero Period and Power Hour. These are both available weekly for those who are interested in taking advantage of these opportunities. Remember: Wednesday afternoons are generally math and science, while Thursday is ELA and social studies.Also a quick reminder that students must have a signed permission slip to participate, and should be sure to speak to the teacher they would like to stay with to receive a form. 8th grade students are picked up around the back of the building in the bus loop.
Have a great week!
