GENERAL 

ALL STUDENTS:  Counselors are busy working on the Petition to Adjust Schedule Forms. Counselors will send any NEW schedules to you in class. Some classes need to be balanced and other classes might be collapsing, so there are still a number of schedules that will change. We ask for your patience in this process as we have many changes to make. Tuesday was the last day for student initiated schedule requests.

ATTENTION STUDENTS!!  It's time for the 2010 Lion's Club Speech Contest.  This year's topic is:

"Universal Healthcare - How will it affect us?"  Your speech must be between 5-10 minutes in length and address the topic.  The school contest will be held during the week of February 1 after school.  See Mrs. Limbaugh in the library if you are interested in participating to sign up.
