EVENTS AND NOTICES




BIKE TO SCHOOL WEDNESDAY 6-12-2019
Although it won't be a supervised event, every student who owns a bicycle and feels safe enough riding to school on their own (with parent consent) or with a parent is encouraged to bike here. It would be great to beat our previous full bike rack record of 75 bicycles. The weather is expected to be spectacular this Wednesday and there will be slap bracelets for every biker.









image.pngAll registrations for this summer's peer leadership mini-camp are due Monday June 10! We have several spots left for current 6th and 7th-grade students. Because this camp conflicts with other camps, we will only hold SEED camp for two days, July 15 and16. Please return registration forms to Jamilah Vogel. 


* Humanities Campers will be able to sign up for BOTH camps!

* If any student is interested in this program but not able to register for camp, please talk to Ms. Jamilah to request an exception. 






8th-GRADE Raffle Tickets
8th graders are selling raffle tickets for some great prizes (Grand Prize is 4 comfy seats at graduation), all money collected goes to their 8th-grade trip.  Ask an 8th grader if you would like to purchase some.  Winners will be drawn Monday, June 10th.  Thank you for your support.
