Issues
Thank you to the administration for replacing the microwave in the cafeteria that was needed due to the timer being set for too long and breaking the old one. We have another challenge though. Toilet paper rolls are being removed in the bathroom and used to plug the toilets. We are asking everyone to please be more responsible in keeping our school running and clean.
