Did you know: National Scavenger Hunt Day sends us off to find random items all in the name of good fun. The game challenges teams to scavenge for a list of odd items. As part of the rules, participants are not allowed to buy the objects. Depending on where the hunt takes place, players may have to beg, barter, or even work for them, too.

Self Care Tips: Why does breathing help you feel calm?

“If you are graduating in June, please make sure to take care of any outstanding debts. Turn in those books ASAP and make sure to return your Chromebook at the end of the year. You may still participate in the graduation ceremony if your debt is not cleared, but you will not be able to pick up your diploma or get an Official Transcript. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Gabion in the office. Thank you.”
