THOUGHT OF THE DAY: He who ever asks a question is a fool for a moment, but he who never asks a question is a fool forever. Many times in school we don’t understand what our teachers are trying to say or we don’t understand something we’ve read. This happens to every single one of us. This doesn’t mean you are stupid. It just means you are a human being. So don’t be afraid to speak up! After all, before you can ask a question, you have to be thinking, which makes you a whole lot smarter than those who aren’t.
BREAKFAST: Attention all students: The cafeteria is now serving free breakfast and lunch meals for all students every day until the end of December. You heard that right… free breakfast and lunch meals! All students automatically qualify and no form needs to be submitted. Take advantage of this program and join us in the cafeteria for your free breakfast and lunch each day that you are in school.
LUNCH: Students can drop off money for deposit in the morning to the breakfast cashier or Mrs. Cabrera. The money or check must be in an envelope with the student’s name and ID number. All funds will be deposited onto student accounts after the breakfast service. Cashiers will not accept cash during lunch.”
SAFE: It’s SAFE to Tell. The SAFE Team exists to help students with problems in a confidential manner to help remove any and all barriers to education. You can refer your friends or yourself. It’s now safer and easier to tell: just fill out the SAFE to Tell form which you can find ONLINE in your guidance counselor’s resources folder. Don’t worry, “It’s Safe To Tell.” Thanks for being AWESOME!
