May 23 is the last day of classes for seniors and their last chance to connect with teachers on any unfinished assignments.
iPads will be collected in the Commons during the school day starting at 7:20 am. Three items will be collected at this time (iPad, charger, and cable). Students can refer to Dr. Wagner’s Schoology post regarding steps they need to take before turning in their iPad.
