Don't miss "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" this Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at 7:00 p.m.
Our wonderful theater department is performing, "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" three nights this week. Their shows are Thursday the 18th, Friday the 19th, and Saturday the 20th at 7pm. Student - $8, Adults - $10, Staff all get in free with their badge. This should be a really fun show, and there are almost 50 students directly involved and many more who have helped out along the way. I know Mr. Feldman, Mr. Causey, and all of our theater students would love to see you at one of the shows!

It is that time again, Clark staff! The Plano ISD Education Foundation Employee Campaign is scheduled for February 15th through February 26th
This week in the library it was all about the love. Here are some students making Valentine cards and boxes for their friends. I also thought this week would be a good time to ask students to post what they love about the library. One of my favorite statements from a student was “I love the library because it is a place where everybody is kind and nice and especially open-minded.”

Helpful Drug and Alcohol Prevention Information
In an attempt to put relevant, current, and important information concerning drugs and alcohol prevention directly in front of our parents, our student and family services is publishing information for parents in campus eNews called, “Did You Know”. I thought this information would be helpful to teachers and staff as well.
