ID PHOTOS are now taken in the Bookroom. Any students who did not take a photo last year or during Priority Processing should go to the Bookroom to get a photo taken and an ID printed.

If you still have not taken your ID picture, come to the Bookroom before/after school or during lunch WITH EITHER AN OLD ID CARD OR A COPY OF YOUR SCHEDULE. You can get a copy of your schedule off of your Powerschool account. ~M. Miller

Show your spirit! We need every student to vote for Mark Keppel in the Target's Give To Schools campaign before this Saturday at 10pm. After 10 pm, vote again as the clock re-sets for voting. That way, we can quickly get two votes in and each vote equals $1. We are over 1,100 votes as of today and way ahead of Alhambra and San Gabriel.Help us double that amount by voting today.Think about it--if every student votes once, we can add $2,400 to our total and if you vote twice, we can get $4,800 added.Please go tohttp://givewith.target.com/and enter "Mark Keppel" and zip code "91801".Wendy Cho was our 1,000th vote--please see Mrs. Trinh in the Principal's office and pick up your gift certificate. Random votes will be selected so be our next winner. Contest ends Sept. 21 but the $5 million is going fast./PTSA
