Good morning Shells! Today is Monday, December 9th, 2024.
Please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance followed by a moment of silence.
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America,
and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Including today we have seven days left before final exams begin. Let’s make every day count.
Tomorrow is a half-day of classes and students will be dismissed at 11:15am.
This Wednesday we have meetings scheduled for various spring sports. Here are the details:
All of these meetings will take place at 1:35 during Advisory time and the meetings will last about 15 minutes.
If you are interested in indoor or outdoor track, you will meet in the Auditorium.
If you are interested in playing girls soccer, you will meet in the Small Gym.
If you are interested in playing baseball, you will meet in the boys athletic locker room.
Again, all of these meetings will be during Advisory during 1:35pm. If you cannot attend, but are interested, please contact the coach.
There will be a boys tennis meeting on Friday, December 13th in the small gym at 2:50 PM.
