One final reminder about conferences on Thursday.  High School teachers will be in the Field House from 12:30-4 and 5:30-8:30 on Thursday. Please print off your students's schedule at home before arriving for conferences .  It will make it much easier for you and you will not have to wait for it to be printed here at the school.

I wanted to remind everyone that our students will be performing the musical, Cinderella , this weekend in the high school auditorium.  Performances will be on Friday, November 20th at 7 p.m. and Saturday, November 21st at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.  You can purchase tickets at the door for adults at $10, or students and seniors for $8.  You can also email or call in advance to: jonrwallace@yahoo.com and 269-449-8972.   Come out and support our fantastic students and Performing Arts Department.  Enjoy the show!!
