Attention 8th graders and families!!
RADA orders are in and they will need to be picked up at the school on Tuesday, Dec 5 in the office from 3-5pm. Unfortunately, the orders cannot be sent home with students because many of the orders contain knives. An adult will need to come in to pick up their student's order. Please let us know if you have any questions.
Thank you!
