We are anticipating that the graduation ceremony will be outside Friday evening.  As we look at the forecast we anticipate temperatures to be around 60 degrees.  We wanted to get this information out early so that everyone is able to plan appropriately.  Graduation candidates should be in the small gym no later than 6:40 PM.  The gates will open at 6:45 PM for family and friends to enter.

Summer Calculus Packet
Attention parents and students:  This packet is a pre-requisite for all incoming calculus students.  All of these students were given a copy of the packet before they left for break.  However, if they misplaced it, you can download a copy here and print it.  Please make sure to have these completed BEFORE the first day of class.  Thank you and have a great break!  

Note to parents:  Most students have had multiple hours of time IN SCHOOL during the final exams either during review or after each exam in which they could have finished this entire packet.
