Hello Stingray Nation,
This Wednesday is an early release day.
This week is expected to continue to be quite chilly. Be sure to dress appropriately for the weather and remember that there are no blankets allowed on campus, so please wear a jacket. Also remember that students are not to have hats or hoods from hoodies pulled up over their head while on campus.
Seniors! Your senior breakfast is this week on Tuesday, January 28th. Students who purchased a senior bundle or a ticket to breakfast will be allowed to attend. You will receive notification during your first block class on Tuesday that you will be required to bring, along with your student ID, to enter breakfast.
Also on Tuesday is our senior panoramic. Seniors who want to be included in the panoramic need to be at school this week on Tuesday. Students will be dismissed from the both class and the senior breakfast to take the photo. Don’t miss out on being part of such a fun senior event this week! Reach out to Ms. Lakatos or your senior officers if you have any additional questions.
The last chance for senior photos session will be held on February 4th. If you are a senior who has not taken their photo with Cady to be included in the yearbook, you will attend this session. You can see Ms. Lakatos to sign up for a time slot this week. The cost is $10, so either bring the fee with you or it will be added to your student debt to be paid by the end of the year. Seniors who need to take their photo will be sent separate communication regarding this session. Please see Ms. Lakatos for more information.
Grad Bash tickets for the Class of 2025 are almost sold out! Go to dcps.schoolcashonline.com to purchase your ticket no later than February 1st. But be warned – this trip will very likely sell out before that date!
