General Information

Students may use tennis shoes, rubber-cleated soccer shoes, or other soft footwear. Everyone should be aware that high-heeled shoes are very damaging to this turf, and women should bring an extra pair of shoes if they wish to enter of these areas. Thank you.  (Dr. Ketterer)

CAYOS COCHINOS  - SWITCHED TO TELA– The Cayos Cochinos trip of the 12^th grade has been cancelled because of an incompatibility of the dates for the trip.  So, as part of TES, Trabajo Educativo Social, the 12th graders will be going to Tela on March 2 to 7 to assist the community of Garífunas.   They are in need of school materials, so the Senior class has decided to conduct a school supply drive.
