Student Body Debates & Local Scholarship Reminder

Tomorrow (Wednesday) we will be on a 3A/ 3B bell schedule in order to allow for a debate among the candidates for Student Body President and Vice President. All students in grades 9 - 11 will spend part of the time during 3rd period class in the auditorium listening to the debates between the candidates. The candidates will debate twice so that everyone in grades 9 - 11 have the opportunity to hear the discussion.

Seniors do not vote in this election (since you will be college students by the time these candidates will take their positions.) As a result the seniors will have a guest speaker about personal safety in the main gym while the underclassmen listen to the debate.

In case you want/ need the bell schedule for tomorrow it is as follows:
1st: 7:45 - 8:27
2nd: 8:32 - 9:14
3rd: 9:19 - 11:09 (Remember, this will be split by class and you will spend either the first or second half of the time in your regular class and the other half of the time will be in the appropriate assembly)
4th: 11:14 - 11:57
5th: 12:02 - 12:44
6th: 12:49 - 1:31
7th: 1:36 - 2:08
8th: 2:13 - 3:05


For the Seniors, I also wanted to remind you that you are running out of time to complete the local scholarships. The deadline for submitting your local scholarship applications is the end of the school day on Thursday, April 12th. Please be sure to review your applications and make sure that you have all of the required pieces ready to be turned in by Thursday. Hopefully if you needed recommendation letters for your applications you have already requested those as it will be difficult (if not impossible) for teachers to write letters in one night for you.
