Ms Jarrett:Fri. Nov 6 @ 6:00 is the
Grand opening celebration for the Auditorium. Also kick off for

sent home Thursday to students and followed by a One Call
announcement.
Academic Recognition: Ideas for Recognition
are being looked at by the AP teachers (? Not sure this is
correct group). These teachers want to have banners for
recognition and the PTSA might be able to help with the cost of
those. Karen Siladi asked why scholarships are not recognized in
the newspaper like athletic scholarships. Ms. Jarrett noted that
plaques have been put up in the guidance hallway for academic
recognition. Debbie Napier suggested a monthly student(s) of
the month rather than something that focuses only on gifted
students. Ms. Jarret explained the Rotary Club system of
honoring students and this could be the model for a similar
program if the PTSA were interested.

scholarship information that needs to be removed and she will
