7th AND 8TH GRADE HONOR’S BREAKFAST The annual Honors Breakfast is scheduled for Tuesday, May 30th at 7 a.m. in the cafetorium. Our cooking staff will be preparing breakfast for our honor students and their parents. We will honor all 7th and 8th graders who have received all A’s and B’s on their report card for two or more quarters. In order to keep this special for these students, we ask that only the honor students attend with their parents. Please make other arrangements for siblings. Invitations will be sent out in April. If you don’t receive one and think your child qualifies (all A’s and B’s in all subjects for at least two quarters), please contact Lisa Acton in the school office. It is an unintentional omission, and we apologize. We want you to attend!
