Today is an ‘E’ Day. Please remember to get yourself ready for the day. It is your responsibility to use homeroom time to prepare for Block 1. We will not continue to remind you about ordering your lunch and sharpening your pencils every day. Mrs. Sargent and I will be expecting you to remember to do those things on your own.
Thank you,
Mrs. Sargent & Mr. T
