Homecoming is right around the corner!  Have you made your after school plans for Friday, Sept. 30^th?  If you are taking a different bus you will need to bring a note from your parent/guardian Friday morning before school or during your lunch period.  Passes require a parent/guardian note.  Texts are not accepted.  If parents/guardians call after lunch, we cannot guarantee you will get the message.  You will not be allowed to make calls home for after school plans during class time.  This is an extremely busy day so please plan ahead.
