First Day of School, Tues. 9/3

All Band and Color Guard students should arrive to school on Tuesday at 7:00am.  Mrs. C will have an alpha list on the door telling students what room they pick up their schedules from.  The bell will ring at 7:25am to head to those rooms.  After they get their schedules, students will then follow their Periods 1-6 assigned courses.

Schedules the first day may still have errors and we will try to get them fixed as quickly as possible. Online information for students and parents, such as Grades and Attendance, will be a "work-in-progress", as the school district has gone to a new system.  Please be patient as every teacher and office staff is learning the new system. :-)

Have a great weekend and Happy First Day of School!  See you Tuesday.
