The seniors will be having their formal pictures taken on picture re-take day, Friday, November 1. All seniors will have the pictures take so that we will have them for the yearbook. You will be sent proofs to look at so you can decide if you would like to purchase them. 

If you would like your child to have re-takes done then they must bring in the pictures that were sent home.  If your student missed picture day and you would like to have pictures done please pick up an order form (in either of the offices) and send it in with your student on Friday, November st!

We would like to remind you about an opportunity to recognize students who volunteer - and, possibly, to generate some positive publicity for your school. 

Students in grades 5-12 who have volunteered in the past 12 months are eligible to apply for a 2014 Prudential Spirit of Community Award. The online application is open through November 5, 2013 and may be found at http://spirit.prudential.com/ or www.nassp.org/spirit. Paper applications are also available by calling 1-877-525-8491 (toll-free). 

By November 5, students must complete an online or paper application and submit it to you or to the head of a local Girl Scout council, county 4-H group, American Red Cross chapter, YMCA or HandsOn Network affiliate. Certifiers have until November 12 to select Local Honorees and certify their applications for state-level judging. 

State-level honorees are announced in February, and America's top 10 youth volunteers of the year are revealed in May during the State Honorees' all-expense-paid trip to Washington, D.C.

We hope you will encourage your school's youth volunteers to apply for this award. A principal's packet with complete details and award certificates was sent to you at the start of the school year. If you would like an extra packet, please let us know. 

The Prudential Spirit of Community Awards program was created in 1995 by Prudential Financial in partnership with the National Association of Secondary School Principals to shine a spotlight on young people making a difference through volunteer service. We hope to honor one of your students in 2014.

Sincerely,
