Any student in grades 7 -11 wanting to join band or rejoin band next semester – needs to see Mr. Allman during Advisory before Christmas break.

The Spanish Club is hosting a Christmas Door Decorating Contest for the Advisory Classes and Staff. The doors will need to be completed by the end of December 11th.  There will be two sets of prizes. There will be 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes for the Advisory Classes and a 1st place prize for the best Staff Door (those who are not classroom teachers). Doors will be judged after school on December 11th and prizes will be awarded on December 13th during Advisory. The theme is Christmas, not Winter.
