GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
ILEARN THIS WEEK
Students be sure you bring a charged Chromebook and a set of plug-in headphones each day of the week. We do not have any loaner Chromebooks. Lack of preparedness will result in delayed testing.
As a reminder: Cell Phones and smartwatches are not allowed in the testing rooms. Be sure you are placing your personal electronics in your locker before entering the testing room. Seen or heard devices will be confiscated and consequences will be provided by our administration.
To make ILEARN week a bit more enjoyable your student council has planned a spirit week for you! We’ll kick off the spirit week on Monday with a PJ day!
Lastly, the student council will be hosting a homeroom door decorating contest. Doors must be decorated during homeroom by April 30th. The doors will be judged on Wednesday, May 1st. The winning homeroom will get a pizza party lunch!
