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.
It’s that time of year for eligible juniors and seniors to start
applying for membership in National Honor Society! If you are a junior
with a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher, or a senior with a cumulative GPA of
3.25 or higher, then you are eligible to apply for membership. Eligible
students should have received a letter at their home address, inviting them to
join and also explaining the application process. If your GPA makes you
eligible for NHS, but you haven’t received a letter at home, please contact Mr.
Smith in the science office or Ms. Leclaire in the Language Arts office. This letter also tells you about important
informational meetings going on this week. If you are applying for
membership in NHS, you must attend one of these meetings to learn about the
club and the application process. There are four meetings being held for
you to choose from: Thursday and Friday mornings at 6:55 in room C-9,
and Thursday and Friday afternoons at 2:20 in Room
W-103. Remember that these meetings are only for eligible
juniors and seniors, so if you are unsure whether you are eligible, please
contact Mr. Smith in the science office or Ms. Leclaire in the Language
Arts office.
There will be a meeting for current members of National Honor
Society this Wednesday at 2:25 in the Forum. So if you're already a
member of NHS, please be there after school on Wednesday.
