Homecoming Dance
Please be sure to let either me or Dean Sessions know in advance if your child will be late to the Homecoming Dance or will need to leave early. Our policy is that anyone going to the dance must be there by 9:30pm and must stay until at least 11pm. Likewise, please join us in having conversations with your child about good decision-making. We breathalyze our students before allowing entry into our dances, not to “catch” anyone, but to ensure that our students can have a fun time in a safe and healthy environment.

Send in your old markers
The next time you have a dried-out marker, don’t throw it away. Send them in to school! The Upper School Interact Service Club is conducting a marker drive and any old markers (whiteboard, regular, etc..) will be sent to Crayola to be recycled.
