Jr/Sr High Bulletin
Red Hawks, here’s a reminder about our attendance drawings! If you have two or fewer absences between September 8 and October 30, you’ll be entered in the prize drawings at our dodgeball assembly!
We’re also having Surprise Attendance Days this month! We’ll choose a couple of random days in October, and students who attend all their scheduled classes that day will be eligible to win a gift card. You won’t know the dates ahead of time!
Being here helps you keep up, stay connected, and be successful. If you’re sick, stay home and get better. Otherwise, make coming to school a priority!
Students traveling to Italy this spring break: Pick up your Butter Braid order forms from Mrs. Ignash! The sale runs through October 21. See Mrs. Tamlyn or Mrs. Ignash for more details.
The process for getting a work permit is changing as of October 2, 2026. If you are under 18 and getting a job, you will need to go to Michigan.gov/youthemployment to fill out the work permit. You may also use the QR code outside the Guidance Office. If you have any questions, please see Mrs. Dede.
2026-27 Yearbooks are on sale right now! There are a limited number of books available at a discounted price. Once those books are gone, the rest will be sold at full price, $35 for Junior High and $70 for High School. Use the links in the bulletin to order online.
Today is the last day students wanting to play in the Dodge the Discipline dodgeball tournament can sign up using launchpad.
