2007-2008 Scheduling

A reminder to parents that once students have chosen their classes they will bring home a schedule for you to sign and return to school with the $200 registration fee. Classes will not be held for the student until both the money and the signed registration form are turned in. If the student does not bring the form to you, be sure to ask for it. With enrollment at capacity, it is important that registration fees and schedules are turned in to hold your son or daughter's place for the upcoming school year.
