While there are still two months left, we are already making plans for the 2016-2017 school year. Students turned in 2016-2017 course selection forms earlier this week, and renovations will start next month in the school auditorium with the reopening in the fall.
The 2016-2017 registration fee deadline is also approaching. The $200 fee is due Tuesday, Mar. 15. After this date, the registration fee will increase to $350. This fee (as well as other school fees) can be paid through NetClassroom. Only the parent who receives statements from the Business Office will have access to the billing tab.
If you do not see the billing tab at the top of your parent log in screen, please try another parent log in to make the online payment.
Parents also have the option to pay the registration fee at the business office, open until 4:30 p.m. each school day. Please let me know if you have any questions about this process.
