Eat breakfast first if you are going to.Go directly to the library. You will need
a pass.Once you are in the library, you will not
be allowed to leave until the 8:20 bell rings.
HOW TO GET A LUNCH PASS…..
You must get your lunch pass before the 1st hour tardy bell.
Passes are given first come, first serve: 15 total per lunch.
We will not give you a tardy pass if you are late to class…you must get it in time to get to class.
You must have your pass to show the adults on duty in the cafeteria or you will not be allowed to proceed to the library.

We watch all computers and we decide what is and is not appropriate.

• Shopping online• Viewing any Websites that might be
considered inappropriate – by me and Mrs. Branch…not you.
