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. 

Hey Warriors!!  Don't forget today is dollar pizza day.  $1.00 for every slice!!   Specials for today are . . .  French dip, sesame chicken with rice, and spicy chicken breast sandwich.  Also . . . starting Tuesday, BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND . . .
