Please make sure students get a good nights rest, are on time to school tomorrow, with their chromebooks charged. Thank you parents for all of your donations of snack and drinks. We now have enough for all our classes. Your generosity and support are very much appreciated. We have instructed the students to leave their phones at home or in their locker. No phones will be allowed in the testing room. Teachers will ask students who have them to turn them in until the testing session is complete. We want to make sure no tests are invalidated for our students. Thank you again for supporting our school. Here we go!
