Lunch today is:  Corn dog, peas, fresh fruit, fudge bar.

 

Lunch permission forms are in the office if students need to eat lunch at home.  This would be only for students who live in town and/or within 1 mile from the school.  The permission forms need to by signed by parent and student and then returned to the high school office.

Seniors will have a meeting today at 12:35 pm in the Auditorium.  Please be on time.

 

Laura Mastin, please see Don Anderson today.  Thanks!          

 

Students need to be mindful of where they are parking.  Do not park on private property; in front of private driveways, allies or mailboxes; in marked off areas; or any other illegal places.  The community is very generous and helpful with the school in allowing you to park in areas near the school.  Please do not disrespect their generosity.  Thanks for your cooperation.

 

As you may have noticed, we will have 2 lunch lines in the 2 separate windows during lunch.  You will receive your main food items, silverware, and napkins at one of the windows.  Students need to grab their milk before getting to Mrs. Berschman.  Thanks for your cooperation with this change.

 

Pep rally today at 3:01.  Students will not have Study Hall at the end of the day.  All students need to report to the Auditorium after 8th period.

 

Picture Day is Monday, August 30.  All students (including seniors) should be photographed, but you are not obligated to buy pictures.  We will need everyone’s picture for the yearbook.  If you do not have a picture form, please stop by the office and pick one up.

 

Seniors and Parents - There will be a brief informational meeting for all North Iowa High School Seniors and their parents on Monday, August 30, 2010 at 7:00 p.m. in the North Iowa High School Multi-purpose Room.  This meeting will help to explain and clarify important details about the 12th grade year and help diminish the anxiety of post secondary planning.   All senior parents and their student are encouraged to attend this meeting to ask questions and receive current information.

 

All students 9-12 interested in acting in the Fall play are to report to the auditorium promptly at 3:05 Wednesday 9/1 for a brief power point regarding the play.  Student interested in trying out for speaking roles will be given scripts to look over before auditions 9/2, 9/3, 9/7, and 9/8 (before and after school) in Mr. Fisher’s room (Rm 16).

The play will be cast by September 9th.

 

HS students need to be more mindful and respectful of our HS dress code.  Please abide by the following found in your HS student handbook (found in your planner also):

·         Students are expected to dress appropriately and respectfully.  The following clothing is considered inappropriate:  any clothing that reveals undergarments or certain body parts (breasts, butt, or other private body parts); clothing that is overly tight and/or revealing; clothing with inappropriate wording or connotation; clothing with obscene or indecent sayings or pictures; clothing that advertises alcohol/tobacco/drugs; and wearing a cap or other head dress (bandana, hood, etc.) while in the school building during school hours.

 

Students need to sign in or out of the HS office when leaving school or returning to school.

 

If you are hanging out at “The Lot” (school parking lot area), please do your part to pick up after yourself.  Thanks for your cooperation.

 

Students—Another reminder that your Student Council has decided the order for lunch will be Seniors first in the lunch line this week and the following weeks.  Juniors will eat 2nd, Sophomores 3rd, and Freshmen 4th.  Starting next week, order in the lunch line will be determined by Spirit points.

 

HS students need to avoid using the 2nd floor of the MS wing (by the MS lockers – Multi-purpose room area).  This is where the 6th and 7th grade lockers are and could cause congestion in the halls.  This would affect Band, Chorus, and Health/PE students the most.  These students should go through the Commons and lobby to get to these classes.  Also, please try not using the west hallway on the 3rd floor of the 1922 building unless absolutely necessary.  This area does not have as much congestion but is still the location of 8th grade lockers.  Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.

 

The weight room will be open for student use after school on days Mr. Bergeson is available to supervise.

 

Cell phones are not allowed in the classrooms.  They can cause a disturbance to the classroom environment.

 

All Thompson students in grades 6-7 will ride Rosella Wubben’s bus to and from Thompson each day. She will arrive at the Thompson School building around 7:50 a.m. each morning.  All students in grade 8-12 from Thompson will ride Don Mathahs’ bus to and from Thompson. Don will arrive at the Thompson building at 7:15 a.m.  Due to limited space there will not be room on Rosella’s bus for 8-12th graders.  During MS volleyball practice, all volleyball players WILL ride on Rosella’s bus after school only.

 

 Happy birthday to Tate Corporon, whose birthday is tomorrow, August 28th.  Have a great day!
