SENIORS: In preparation for Jostens arriving with your graduation gowns, we will start collecting money this week for the gown rentals. Please bring one check for $20 and one for $5 (or cash) for the gown rental.  Once the gowns are returned, the $20 check or cash is given back to you. You MUST bring $25 or you will not get your gown when Jostens is here.  They plan to come mid to late April and I will notify you when the date is set. Please note this only applies if you plan to rent a gown. If you purchased a gown, this does not apply to you.

Our athletic trainer, Ben, will be in tomorrow, Thursday, but not until 3:00 PM due to a conference he is attending. If you need to see him, please plan to see him during Patriot Pride Time tomorrow.
