- Come and join the “Clutter of Bobcats! In case you didn’t know a clutter is the term for a group of bobcats. And that’s what we are. The Clutter is a school sponsored club composed of students who desire to initiate and develop friendships with peers who have special needs. This group will have a variety of opportunities to offer support and friendship. If you are interesting in being a part of our group please join us in Room 101 on Thursday, September 13 during Advisory for our very first meeting.
- Students-once you are on campus, you must stay on campus. Also, make sure you have a pass ANY time you are out of class during the class period. This includes coming to the office, library and nurse. ALWAYS have a pass.
