I ANNOUNCEMENTS & REMINDERS: I

During Falcon Time today, the green-status HS students can sign out to either the HS LMC or the Classic Gym... Commons is reserved only for green-status 8th Grade students today. Regarding the shop, only green-status HS students will be able to sign-out to the shop, unless Mr. Green specifically "pass-requests" a red-status student.

With Homecoming being next week, a popular tradition involves students toilet-papering houses. Please be mindful that not all households view such an act the same way. In fact, it is possible for the police to charge you with vandelism. Therefore, if you're going to toilet paper a home, be sure you know that home would see it as something fun. If you get charged with vandelism, that will affect other things (like your eligilbility to play sports). Since our school is very limited with custodial help this school year, the school is off limits from being toilet papered.

Brookwood FFA Clothing order forms are available outside of Mrs. Schmitz' room. Order deadline is next Friday 29th.

Junior high boys' basketball sign up in the high school office from now until noon on October 4th.

Any students grades 9-12 who would like to participate in Math Team, please talk to Mrs. Campos before Friday 9/29.  If you were on the math team last year, please check Google Classroom for an announcement about this year!

School Picture Retake Day is Oct. 12th. Order forms are available in the HS office to take home for students that need to take or retake their school pictures.

Senior quotes are coming back to the yearbook. Seniors, you need to get them approved my Mrs. Ferries. Once she has all the approved quotes, Mrs. Ferries will send them to Mr. Abing.

Reminder of class dues: Seniors to Ms. Holte, Juniors to Mrs. Sheehan, Sophomores to Mr. Da Prato, and Freshmen to Mr. Behrens.

Junior High students interested in being in FFA need to pay their $15 dues to Mrs. Schmitz by October 12th!

Homecoming Dance is September 30th. If you're planning on bringing a guest who doesn't currently go to our school, you'll need to pick up the appropriate form in our office and have it returned to our office by September 27th. It's a one-page form but will most likely take more than a day to complete.

Reminder to order your yearbooks by 9/29. Order forms are in the HS Office.

If you plan on taking college classes during the spring semester, you will need to pick up forms from Mrs. Nemec.  All Start College Now and Early College Credit Program applications are due to Mrs. Nemec by 3:15 on Monday, October 2.  Forms will NOT be accepted after that date and time.

Fellow Falcons, you may have noticed that fencing has been put up by the football/softball field and the old student parking lot. Consequently, that area is officially under construction so no students or staff can use that space until further notice (most likely when the project is completed in July).

Juniors and/or Seniors interested in attending the Wisconsin Education Fair and Career Expo at the LaCrosse Center on Monday, September 25 should pick up an Advance Make-Up form from Mrs. Nemec.  Students will have 30 minutes to talk to college representatives and then listen to 2 different career speakers of your choosing.
