Passing Time
Just a reminder, and as good practice, you have 3 minutes between classes. Thank you to those who can, and do, make it to class on time! There are some students, however, whose efforts aren’t quite as fast as others. Please remember, if you are late, you need to fill out a late slip. Refusal to fill one out will lead to having a FULL lunch detention. Please be on time to class!

Forward Testing
Student please realize that many students are starting to take the Forward exam today this is a way for students to show their knowledge in different content areas. Please make sure you are quite in the halls. Those that are testing please remember there are no phones or electronic devices allowed in testing rooms, please keep them in your locker or you will be asked to place them in a bin in the testing room.
