HALLWAY RULES - NO FOOD OR DRINKS
Water bottles, drinks, and food are strictly prohibited in the hallways as
of now. We are having increasing issues with spills, messes and school property being damaged. Teachers, if you see students out in the halls with these items and they do not have a doctor's note allowing it with them, take or discard the bottles. Food items are never allowed to be opened and transported.

BUS ROUTES THAT CAN NOT HAVE EXTRA RIDERS 
At this time we are experiencing a number of overcrowded buses with 3 to a seat and we are unable to accommodate extra riders. The following bus routes are not excepting bus passes until further notice.

CHROMEBOOK REMINDER
Students please remember to limit what you take to each class. Chromebooks can not be stacked on several books. The bottom of the blue case has support to one book only. Carrying several books increases the chance for your chromebook to slip and break. Broken chromebooks will have to pay a $25 deductible to get it fixed.

Students should always carry chromebook cases by the handle.

HEALTH ROOM PASS REMINDER
Students, please remember you need to report to your next class before coming to the Health Room. Do not stop in between classes unless it is an emergency.
