“You may get a laugh for the present; but you will make enemies by it. Even those who laugh with you then, [after thinking about it will dislike] you. If you have wit, use it to please, and not hurt.”

Students!  All Library Books were due yesterday and textbooks are due Friday, June 8th. Books that are not returned will need to be paid for before you attend end of the year field trips, so check those shelves at home, backpacks, lockers and under the bed and get them in!

If you have not visited the Lost and Found recently, it would be a good idea to get there this week. Items will be donated the last week of school…

If you have a Locker assigned to you, please begin clearing it out. Lockers will be opened, emptied and the locks will be taken off tomorrow, Wednesday, June 6th. If you are having trouble getting into your locker, see Ms. Gamboa in the office.

Hello Students and Parents: If a student has forgotten to bring something to school (lunch/ipad/homework/sports equipment, etc.), it can be left for them at the office if necessary. Students are encouraged to check at the office during recess, lunch or passing periods for things they think may have been delivered for them. We DO NOT NOTIFY STUDENTS- they are expected to be responsible for their own items.
