General Announcements

Tonight is the Free Annual Holiday Band Concert in the theatre! Pre-concert ensembles will start performing at 5:50 pm, followed by the main concert at 6:30 pm. We will feature, Concert Band, Symphonic Band, Wind Ensemble, and the England Wind Symphony. We will be previewing our upcoming England Concert Tour performing group at the close of the concert. This will be the exact same program that we will perform in London's Central Westminster Hall and at St. John's in Smith's Square! Also, don't miss senior clarinetist, Nicole Jensen, performing her Weber concerto with the Wind Ensemble. And of course, the famous "Sleigh Ride" will be performed by our Wind Ensemble, as well!

It’s almost here. The week you’ve all been waiting for – no, not winter break – FINAL EXAMS! Finals run from December 15th through December 18th with 3 exams each day. The kitchens will be open until 11:30 each day. Lunch will not be served. All buses will run on a regular schedule.
Check with your teachers and on flyers around the school to confirm your specific testing times.
Prepare & always do your best! GOOD LUCK, WARRIORS!!!

Students please be aware that during the four days of finals the library will be a QUIET STUDY AREA only. If you do need to have group discussions for an assignment please do it in the cafeteria. Thanks for your cooperation & Happy Holidays.

Attention Freshmen! Freshman Student Council officers are hosting a holiday volunteer mission and need your help. We are looking for donations such as canned foods, bottled water, clothes in good condition and books for the Denver Rescue Mission. Please turn your donations into Mrs. Hitchens in the Art Department. If you would like to help bring the donated items to the Denver Rescue Mission with the Student Council officers please contact Anish Punjabi, Margo Conn, Paige Ledesma or Kaity Ireland.
