Own your actions
Expect excellence
Show kindness
We appreciate the dedication, devotion, and excellence our students have shown this year. We can’t wait to celebrate our students and the wise choices and hard work they have exhibited.
*Students who are not passing all classes by May 18, will be ineligible to attend. Starting May 21, we will send an ineligibility notification for any students affected. However, students who raise all grades to passing by Wednesday, May 23, will be notified by their teacher if they become eligible to attend the carnival.
*All library books must be turned in, or fines paid, in order to attend, so please ensure that everything has been turned into Ms. Owen, our librarian, before Friday, May 18.
Plan now to help your student dress appropriately for the weather, by wearing sunscreen and bug spray. Students may wear a hat and sunglasses while outdoors. Students may get a little wet from some of the games, so plan ahead. No swim trunks or swim suits are allowed, and all dress code rules apply.
