Seniors, the Homecoming Ballot is now live in your class of 2023 Schoology. The ballot will remain open until Monday, September 12th, when the google form will close for submissions. Make sure to get your vote in.

Attention all students: Beginning this coming Monday, September 12, our lunch and Panther FLEX schedule will become much simpler to manage. The bell schedule will remain the same, but rather than two different lunch/FLEX periods, all students will now have lunch first, from 11:10-11:40, followed by FLEX from 11:44-12:14. The reason for this change is to provide greater continuity from day to day in student schedules and better, more clear communication. There will be additional seating in the Fieldhouse at lunch, as well as the opportunity for activity in that space on most days. Co-curricular groups can continue to meet for the entire 60 minute lunch/FLEX time. After looking at numbers and space and available time, this should be an easy change to make, as we are already using a single lunch system on early release days. If any issues arise, we’ll adjust.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MRS. DESTERHEFT!
