October is also National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. In the Administration Bldg hallway, we have names of people we would like to recognize for their strength. There are blank pink paper ribbons in the Main Office, if you’d like to add a name.

Hello, Eagles,

Thank you for your continued efforts for campus and community safety:

1.    Rain and Lunch-It is a 70% prediction for rain tomorrow. Please bring an umbrella or poncho. We will do our best to provide outside, covered eating areas. Eating indoors is not yet approved.

2.   Masks-Thank you for continuing to wear your masks OUTSIDE (unless eating or drinking) and INSIDE. It is our collective responsibility to remind ALL Eagles, including substitute teachers, maintenance workers, and visitors.

3.   Maintaining Privacy- Medical information such as vaccination status and COVID19 test results are private. Together let’s remind students to maintain a respectful environment. It is your decision to share your personal information with peers. We have had reports of students feeling singled out about vaccinations, quarantine, and/or isolation. Together we are stronger when we follow safety guidelines and honor personal boundaries. Please report any instances of bullying to our Dean Mr. Moran or School Climate Advocate Ms. Marsy.

4.    COVID19 testing- We will have testing in the South Gym on Monday 10/11 and Tuesday 10/12 Grades  7 thru 10  - in Design class, Grades 11 & 12 - Ind & Societies /  Social Studies. Students, please have your ID cards or student ID #s ready.
