We need you to be at your assigned room as soon as possible after the lunch bell!  If you have not signed up for tutoring, there are some spots open. No tutoring hours means no letter or no honor cord. It is your responsibility to get your hours signed off.

HEY, HAWKS!  It is now officially the beginning of the Holiday Season. We need to reach out to those in our community who are less fortunate. Join us in a food drive to supply the Rio Grande Food Project. Food will be collected in 4th period classes and the class with the most donations will enjoy an awesome pizza party.  We only have until November 12th to get all collections done, so start bringing in non-perishable food items right away. This food drive is a joint project of NHS and Student Senate, and we can make a difference to families in our community this Thanksgiving. Don't forget, bring in a few cans of food for this project and help your neighbors!

NHS Members who will be helping with the food drive, come by E203 today to pick up a Hawk absence form!
