Time is flying by and we are getting that much closer to our Washington DC trip!  We will be having a Mandatory Meeting for Students and Parents/Guardians on Tuesday May 9th, at 6pm here in the JGW Cafe.  The meeting will go over the final itinerary, trip expectations, and necessary medical information.

Students will have a meeting on Friday, May 5th, during the last period of the day in order to go over packing information, expectations, and to get a head start on some of the medical information being sent home.  Please be on the lookout for this information!
