Discussions

  • Community Day Dates Last year there was a day where all students participated in some kind of service project. There are currently 2 potential dates for it, one in the fall and one in the spring. In the fall, they could have it on an early release day, or have it on a 3-day week, on November 10. They have decided to have an option in the fall due to the hectic mood of the summer.
