Upcoming Dates and Deadlines
Student Fees are Due!
Check your student's account for fees! Your student’s account may have been charged recently if they have reported a missing library book, made a uniform purchase, etc. This week we’ll be checking for lost locks, lost textbooks and lost parking passes. Any charges on your student’s account will keep them from getting their yearbook. The last two days of school are very busy with students lined up to check out and get their yearbooks, so please take care of your student's fees ASAP. Thank you!May 22-25
