STUDENTS
If your study hall (not study lab) falls at the beginning or end of the Semester Exam schedule, your parents may call you in to be late or leave early. This also applies to those students who have earned an exemption for a semester exam.

Gang Green is pleased to announce a special event this Saturday during the Boys BB game vs. RB. They will be hosting a "Silent Night" during the game. You need to come to the game dressed in either your Gang Green shirt or something Christmas. There will be an UGLY Christmas Sweater contest and the winner will receive a prize.We will sit silently until the Hornets score ten points...once they hit that number....you will go crazy, etc. See Courtney Martin, Matt Schaidle or Jesika McCaddon for details. Don't forget to stop by and get your shirt in the Hornets Nest. $5.00 each.

If Thursday is a snow day, Friday schedule starts at 8:30. It will be 1st, 5th, 4th, & 6th hours. If Friday is cancelled, finals will be held on January 6th.

TEACHER ASSISTANT
If you are interested in being a Teacher's Assistant next semester, you need to pick up an application in Mr. Wherley's office. You must have a GPA of 2.5 or higher. Mr. Wherley will assign you to the area of most need. Once Freshmen grades are established, you will be qualified to TA as well. If you are currently a TA, you will remain with that teacher even if your schedule changes. If you do not maintain a 2.5 GPA, you will be sent to study hall.

Teachers: Just a reminder to fill out a Teacher's Assistant request. Don't sign a student's form until asked by Mr. Wherley.
