1.) Reminder to students who owe for fees or fines that were not satisfied at check-out. Those items will need to be paid before you can finalize classes at fall final registration.

2.) STUDENT/PARENT Portals for Lumen Student Information System. FYI your final grades for second semester 2010-11 will be viewable and printable from the Lumen Portal until July 7th. *If you need a copy of your grades for insurance purposes, application for summer programs, or jobs, you may print until that time. On July 8th, the 2011-12 school year will become active, and 2010-11 information will no longer be available. At that time however, you will be able to review your class schedule for the upcoming school year. Please keep in mind that every effort was made to accommodate class requests based on first choice indicators. In the event your first choice was not available, your second choice was selected. If you are without a class for a particular period, then you have a scheduling issue that will need to be resolved at final registration. *At this point the option for Spanish I has not been determined, but should be resolved prior to final registration.

3.) Athletes for the 2011-12 school year please remember you will need to have a current physical on file in order to participate in sports. Cheer, Volleyball and Football will begin practices the second week of August so please make sure you have a current physical prior to that time or you will not be allowed to participate.

4.)FINAL REGISTRATION for 2011-12: For your planning purposes, the dates for fall registration have been set for August 23rd and 24th, 2011.

2.) CHECK-OUT FORMS have been delivered. Each student gets ONE free, after that additional copies are $1 each. **This fee is not so much because of the cost for copy, but for the additional work from staff if you lose your form and they have to check you out a second time.**

Library Check-out is unique this year due to our half time library position. Mrs. Booth is available in the Library each morning before school. Also, Thursday from 9:30a.m. to noon and Friday from 8:00-9:15, as well as continually once the check-out process begins.

NOTE: Your Check-out form needs to be COMPLETE when you come for check-out or you will be asked to move to the back of the line. Complete means, ALL signatures required, locker cleaned out, hall locker lock or $10, money for all fees and fines AND This Year - you will need to also turn in your student ID. These will be needed in order to begin the next school year for lunch and library. Thank you!
