Auditions for the musical “Back to the 80’s” are being held this week before school and during chorus time.

Valentines Day is coming and the FCCLA members will begin taking orders this week for personalized messages that you can send to your Valentines on a can of "Crush" soda.  The price will be $1 per can.  Orders will be taken during 9th hour Study hall from now until February 4th. Delivery will be 9th hr. on Valentines Day.

 

HS students:  We will be starting a new HS homework policy starting this week.  Students will have 3 days to turn in homework assignments for any given class.  Any homework assignment not turned in before the 3 days will become a zero (no credit earned for that assignment).  Students who are absent fall under the make-up work policy where they have 2 days to get work made up.  Teachers can request that you stay after school with them or come to school early to get work completed.  Detention may be assigned to students who do not stay after or come early for a teacher.  Our ultimate goal is to improve on getting homework completed in a timely and adequate manner.  Talk to your teachers if you have any questions.

 

Seniors please bring your senior photos that you want in the yearbook to the high school office.  You can have one formal and one casual photo and if you want to email photos send to arnevik@northiowa.org

 

Just a reminder to all those wanting to be active over the winter months – we have a winter fitness club that meets on Mondays and Thursdays after school at 3:40-4:30.  If you have any questions, contact Mr. Potter.

 

Happy birthday to Martha Beenken and Tristan Boehm whose birthdays are Sunday, January 30th.  Have a great day!!
