Annie Jr.! We hope you will join us for one of three performances: Wednesday, Thursday & Friday at 6pm in O'Hara's gymnasium. Admission is free, donations gladly accepted. Concessions will be sold to support the drama program.
Security upgrades & updates
Work is underway for two of our security upgrade projects!
1. Thank you to Builder's Electric for their hard work in completing the prep work on our front doors for the biometric entry install. You'll notice the new entry camera and buzzer outside the front doors of the school as you walk in. The next phase is setting up the software and inputting schedules & fingerprints; we hope to have this complete by the first week of April.
2. Work is underway, and should be complete very soon, on the installation of additional security cameras.

Uniform exchange tables open
Our students are growing! We have put out the uniform tables by the library. If you have uniform clothing to donate, please drop your donation in the barrel located next to the uniform tables. Please remember, only clean uniforms in good condition should be donated. If your student needs a few new uniform items, please come and take what you need.
Thank you to Josefina Cardenas and Celia Sampedro for organizing our uniform exchange tables this year.
Ping Pong Tables Needed!
Mrs. Meyer would like to borrow 6 portable Ping Pong tables for a unit on the Summer Olympics this May. If you have one to lend, please email
Mrs. Meyer.
(the school has enough ping pong paddles and ping pong balls, so only tables are needed.)
