Hey Warriors! Here is an important announcement regarding all of the awesome locker tags that you have in our halls. . . In an effort to keep our halls spirited yet neat and free of litter, we are asking that you remove all locker tags from the outside of your lockers and place them inside once the week of the event has passed. If they are not removed, staff will be taking them down for you following the week of your special game or activity. We take pride in all of our athletics and activities, and feel the locker tags play an important role in creating positive school spirit. Thank you for your cooperation on this effort.
Hey FBLA don’t forget we changed the day. Our next meeting is TUESDAY after school in S1. See you there!
