Announcements

Seniors – Please stop in the office this week to verify the spelling of your name for your diploma.

There are 9 school days to go until winter break. For our Christmas countdown, we are doing acts of kindness for each remaining day. Today, ask 9 people about their day.

The Caring Hands Outreach Center in Altoona has over 700 prom and formal dresses. They want to bless girls in need who wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford high-quality dresses, and we are selling them for just $25 each. 

There are posters with more information about the location and hours by the water fountains around the school. The sale begins Monday, December 26.
