Advisory December 5th

Advisory December 5th:

-Community Scholarship Program 



In advisory today, please take a moment to have students verify payment of their senior fees, as well as their t-shirt size.  The form is sorted by advisory teacher.  I would suggest having students check individually since sharing their size with others could be sensitive.

Students who HAVE paid the $15 fee are marked “yes” and have a t-shirt size entered.  
*If a student wishes to change their requested size- please mark the new size in the YELLOW column.
*If a student thinks they paid but are not marked- please write PAID with their t-shirt size in the YELLOW column. (I will verify these with Donna and communicate with those students via email personally by Monday).
*If a student has not paid they may still do so in the office.  The senior fee helps pay for the facilities for senior breakfast, the senior t-shirt, the senior gift, as well as other senior-specific events.  In order to receive a t-shirt, fees must be paid by the end of this semester.  

Thank you for taking the time to check this info carefully.  We will be ordering shirts at the end of the semester so that they can wear them throughout the Spring Semester.  At this time, there will not be a second order placed so it is important that fees are paid on time.
