Last night’s storms overheated the electrical panel to the cafeteria and as a result, we are currently unable to provide regular hot meal services. For Monday, September 25th, breakfast will consist of cereal, milk & juice and lunch will be a sack lunch with sandwich & milk. Cafeteria staff are actively working with our vendors to come up with alternative meal solutions and administration/teachers are working on alternative meal locations (classrooms, outside, etc.) We understand that this situation may cause inconvenience, and we sincerely appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this time.

**REMINDER** Picture day is tomorrow, Monday, September 25 for P3 - 11th grade and Senior pictures. Seniors need $20 for the sitting fee. Retakes will be Monday, October 23.
