SENIOR FASHION SHOW CANCELLED The Senior Fashion Show that was scheduled for Wednesday, March 19 is now officially cancelled due to lack of student interest. If your child submitted photos for the Slide Show, they are asked to pick up their photos in Mrs. Pianetti�s office. Also, all pre-paid payments that were made for a copy of the DVD will be returned. My thanks to all of you who offered to help with the Fashion Show. I am sorry to see this senior tradition end.

The committee had an incredibly difficult task of
choosing the top 5 nominees from the list of approximately 50 deserving

took the time to recognize the excellence in our school community by
submitting a nomination. I also want to recognize and congratulate all of
those who were nominated by members of this community for displaying the
qualities of excellence embodied in this award.
The Excellence Awards dinner will be held on Monday,

reservations early so that you can continue to show your support for our
winners.
