First Days Logistics

Like I mentioned earlier, this has been a full week.  So as to limit your feeling of overwhelmingness (is that a real word?), this post be purely functional information to smooth your work over the next couple of days.

Likely FAQs

• Metrocards will be distributed by the end of the day on Thursday by Carol and Nancy
• Lockers Assignments & Contracts will be given to advisors on Monday AM.  Grade teams can decide when and how to distribute lockers to advisees.
• Open Lunch will be open for all students for Thursday & Friday, but they must return the Open Lunch permission slip on Monday if they want to get a lunch pass.  Please ask for forms and return them to Ms. Doris or Ms. Nicia
• Special Schedules for Seniors - seniors will have special schedules that they will receive on FRIDAY.  They will be tailored to their individual needs AND they will be full programs for the fall.  All of this will be covered in the assembly, too.
• School Supply list is posted on our website.
• Student Schedules will be distributed prior to dismissal on Friday afternoon.
• Advisories will meet in their regular Advisory rooms except for assembly.  They should come directly to the library for assembly - yes we'll fit
