PLEDGE & MOMENT OF SILENCE

Today is an “a” DaY

ATTENTION ALL SENIORS!

There is a mandatory senior class meeting Wednesday, June 4, at 11:00 AM in the theater.  At this meeting CAPS AND GOWNS, as well as other IMPORTANT GRADUATION INFORMATION, will be distributed!

Please make sure you have all your fees and fines paid by June 4^th.  Lunch will be provided! 

Don't miss three fantastic student-directed short plays at 7:00 on Monday in the theatre!  Isaac Hickox-Young directs "Poof," a comedy about a woman who wishes her husband would die and then finds somehow he's been turned into a pile of ash.  Emilee Kynast-Pena directs "Rise and Shine," another comedy about death, this time set in a graveyard where there seems to be some mistaken identity . . . among dead people!  Lauren Pretlove directs "Mom and the Razor Blades," a surreal black comedy about a mom on her birthday--in a house where her 37 children keep killing themselves or running away.  Sound like a weird, funny evening in the theatre?  It IS!  Don't miss the last drama performances of the year!  Remember:  7:00, Monday!  FREE!

All 2014-15 AP Music Theory students will meet for lunch in Room 143 on Thursday, June 5.  Bring your lunch!
