ANNOUNCEMENTS FOR WEDNESDAY, MAY 29, 2024

EXAM INFORMATION To eliminate the increasing number of conflicts in exam times, we will be shifting to testing by carrier. Students absent on an exam day due to an unplanned medical emergency will need to coordinate a time to take the exams with the teacher of those courses. Absences during exam days require medical documentation, and unexcused absences will result in a zero for the exam. There is no “make-up day” and every effort should be made to take an exam during the exam time.

  • Monday, June 3, 2024 - NO LATE START
    • 8:00-10:00 - 1st Carrier

THEATER NEWS 

  • Hey Folks, imagine my surprise when there were no students waiting to audition yesterday afternoon for a role in The Comedy of Errors. I'm hoping things will change today. I've had a few kids ask if the show will conflict with the Right to Life March in January. I fixed the situation so that we will not be away when the March on Friday, January 19 is held. We'll be back for the show to go up on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, January 25, 26, and 27 instead. Audition times for tomorrow will start tomorrow at 3:50pm and go as long as there is a need. Please consider giving The Comedy of Errors a try. Lots of fun and laughter will be had! Any questions, email Mr. Rose at bob_a_rose53@yahoo.com. Hope to see you tomorrow!
  • Did you hear the news about the fall play? Mr. Harvey will be directing an adaptation of C.S. Lewis’s The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. Interested in auditioning? Sign up HERE to secure your spot! Auditions will be held in Mr. Harvey’s room (406) immediately after school (3:10) on Thursday and Friday of next week and are scheduled to run until 4:00 both days.
