Attention all students and parents--Do you have an Android phone? If so, there is an app available that allows you to download a TI-84 Calculator for free! While you are not allowed to use these on any standardized tests (including ACT and EOC), this can be very useful for homework. Some teachers may even allow them to be used in class for daily work (but not for tests or quizzes). The apps name is Wabbit emu. It can be downloaded on google play. We suggest that you download the TI 84 C SE version as this is the most recent release by TI--in color!

Hello All! With the Holiday Season quickly approaching, it is time to start our annual Student Council Canned Food Drive. First period classes should bring in canned goods and The Student Council will come around once a week to collect them. Our canned food drive will run November 17-December 12. Please keep track of how many canned goods your first period collects and the class with the most will receive breakfast on December 18.
PRP Clubs, Organizations, and Classes-We will also be adopting families to purchase holiday gifts for this year. Please let me know if your club, organization, or class would like to participate and what size family you would like to buy gifts for. Please reply back to me as soon as possible with your club/organization/classes name and small, medium, or large family. We had 10 clubs/organizations adopt families last year and this year I think we can have bunches more! Remember that this is the only way that these families have food and gifts for the holidays!
