A Message from Rick Riley-Benoit
Student Led conferences will be held on November 4th & 5th with their advisors. Students are looking at setting goals for the year, so we look forward to you joining in the process! Also, if your student is missing an item of clothing, water bottle, etc, please have them check out the lost and found across from the Main Office. Parents are also welcome to come take a look if you know your child is missing an item. We ask that you come between the hours or 8am -1pm or take a look when you come to your students conference. Any item that is not claimed will be donated at the end of the trimester which is November 24th.
