Today we will be following the A-Day schedule. That means you’ll be attending periods 1, 3, 5, and 7 — so be sure to double-check that you’ve got the correct books and binders for class. We also have WOLF TIME today — which will take place in your TA classroom. Again, this is an A-Day. See your TA teacher with any questions.

And now for a “Technology Tip” from Ms. Solomon. Please put a passcode on your iPad. This basic security measure ensures that all of your personal information remains safe and secure. Also, be sure to WRITE DOWN your passcode on a piece of paper and leave it at home. And if you forget your passcode while at school — just submit a Student Tech Help Request Form and Ms. Solomon can unlock it remotely.
