PTO will be recognizing 8th graders with personalized yard signs and end of the year celebrations in May! Please purchase a yard sign for your 8th grader or sponsor a sign at this link. https://my.cheddarup.com/c/8th-grade-fundraiser-copy Proceeds will be used toward 8th grade end of year activities.

We are looking to reward our students with exceptional behavior with the End of Year Reward. While they will have many opportunities to use PBIS points this last nine weeks, this is something that requires no points.

Beginning March 17 (first day of the last nine weeks) any student who has NO ISS, OSS, or Bus Suspension and no more than ONE Rebound will be eligible to attend a grade level social time at the end of the year after EOG/EOC testing is complete.

It will be a time of fun, games, yearbook signing, concessions to be purchased, music, laughter and social time.

Everyone is eligible to earn this reward and we hope to see all our students participate.
