General
Announcements
Warriors, it is always important that you attend all
of your classes. Ask any upperclassmen and they will tell you that one of the
keys to doing well in class is attending every day and being on time. For the
next two weeks, your attendance will also be important in determining how our
school gets funded. The annual October count determines how much money our
school gets from the state, based on how many students we have attending.
Please make sure you are making every effort to attend all of your classes
every day.
The
Speech and Debate Team meets after school Tuesday in C15 from 2:30 to 3:30.
All members should plan to attend Tuesday's meeting. Practice will
also take place Thursday after school in C15. Members competing in October should plan to
attend Thursday's practice.

Attention all juniors and
seniors: Who loved that 8th grade trip to Washington
DC? Who was left back at school wishing they could be in Washington
rather than in class? All of you have another chance to go. Juniors
and seniors are eligible to go to DC for a week in March to take part in a trip
that is far more than tourism. Discuss and debate the issues of the day
with students from all over the country. Interact with those who do government.
And have fun with your friends, too. For
those interested in this trip please attend an informational meeting on
Thursday, September 27th at 2:30 in room C8. If you are
unable to attend the meeting please see Mr. Hawthorne or Mr. Meyer in the Social
Studies department before September 27th.
