Student Spotlight: STUCO

 

This week, the Student Council, STUCO, delivered a ping pong table to the common area of the High School and oh what a success it has been.  STUCO came to me with the suggestion of raising funds for a ping pong table to boost spirit and provide a fun activity to do during our breaks in the day. STUCO raised funds through bake sales, and spirit week dress downs to raise the needed funds for the table.  The competition has been fun and at times fierce! What I have loved about having the table in the high school is that it has brought the different classes together creating lasting memories. I’ll admit that I have participated in a few exciting and competitive rounds of table tennis already!

AP Exams May 6-17

 

AP Exams Start this Monday.  Students taking AP courses will begin their AP exams on Monday, May 6th.  AP Exams will run through May 17th. On the day of the exam, students are to be in school just for the duration of the exam.  Exams begin at 8am and 1pm sharp.   Once an exam has begun, students will not be allowed to take the exam that day.  Please make sure that students are on campus before the exams begin.

Students are to be at school on days that they do not have an AP exam.
