The high school Student Council will be hosting a pancake breakfast on Friday morning at 8:00am for grades 8-12. Come a bit early and enjoy some Valentine’s time with your classmates!

The Senior Winter Formal Dance (Grades 10-12), “The Snow Ball”, is this Thursday, February 6, from 7:00-10:00pm in the gym. Tickets are on sale now in the foyer at lunch for $10. They will also be available at the door.

During exam week (Jan. 22-24), the office is unable to page students to take phone messages in the mornings because exam times run right until 12:00pm. Parents, please remember to pre-arrange pick-up times with your child(ren) next week.

Students have access to a telephone in order to phone parents, but it is for local phone numbers only. If your phone number is a long distance number, you will have to make other arrangements for communication.
