As announced in the district newsletter, all eighth graders and their parents have been asked to attend the 4 Year Plan workshop on Wednesday, May 14th.The workshop is scheduled from 7:00-8:00pm. The location has been changed from the school multi-purpose room to the secondary science classroom, so please plan to park near and enter through the door at the northwest entrance
of the school.

Please plan to attend one of these two sessions to help your student complete their required Four Year Academic Study Plan.
