This time is valuable for the teachers as it allows them to collaborate so this is not a time to get help, make up tests, or whatever else you may need. If you have a ride make sure they understand that you need to be picked up at 12:45. Please leave the building immediately. (today) “Attention all fall athletes! With this Friday being our first LIF day, please be aware that the locker rooms will be closed promptly at 12:45 and not re-opened until 2:00. If you need access to the sports side of the locker rooms, your coach can assist you from the outside doors in the back. PE teachers will not be available to help you so knocking on the door won’t help. See your coach for information about study locations.” (today) Seniors: If you have a GPA of 3.5 or higher, applying to Washington State University for fall of 2014 and would like to be considered for a possible scholarship, please see Mrs. Allen in the Career Center by October 18th.
