MS/HS Bulletin August 26

Dr. Schwan's reminders:
  • High school students do have open lunch, but you may not drive and/or ride with anyone during that time.  The consequence will be closed lunch for 1 month, and a really good way to lose senior privileges when they are available.  Middle school students you must remain in the lunchroom unless we have heard from your parent that you are able to walk home.
  • Caps are not allowed during school hours.  Please be respectful.
  • Cell phones are to be off and put away during class.  Any time that class is in session phones are not to be used.  First offense is 1 hour detention and each time after is 1 day of ISS.
  • Remember your manners as spectators during activities.  Stay off the floor, and allow people to walk by.  Respect the officials and the supervisors when they ask you to do something.  
  • Grade 9-12 sign up for student council in the office.
Thank you, and have a great year!
