When you enter the cafeteria at lunch please line up against the wall where the restrooms are.  You will need your ID in order to scan in for lunch.  If you don’t have your ID you will have to go to the back of the line and wait for all students with their ID to go first then you will be allowed to punch your number in.  If you have lost your ID and need to purchase another one see Coach Smith between classes.  They are $10.00.

If anyone is interested in getting community service learning hours we have an exciting opportunity for you!  The cafeteria is going to be open from 4-8 P.M. on Mondays to serve the community of Fouke.  Kinda like a cafe.  It would just be wiping tables and sweeping, running back and forth between the kitchen and other small things.  They will try to start in October and it is only on Monday afternoons.  If you are interested please see Heather in the cafeteria.

Night Library will be every Monday from 3:30-5:00 in Ms. Brooks room.  Please come and make up work, test, work on credit recovery or just get extra help.

Some of you are already in danger of losing credit for the semester due to your absences and tardies.  Get up and get to school.  Also, if you have a credit recovery assignment you need to get on it.  You have to complete 60% of the assignments and have a passing grade of 60 or higher.  The classes assigned to you have to be completed by December 18th. Get it done so you can enjoy your year and don’t have this hanging over you.
