This is a reminder that Yondr Pouch turn-in days are approaching!
Seniors began turning in their Yondr pouches beginning today, May 19th.
Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors will be able to turn in their pouches on May 26th and 27th.
Students may only turn in their Yondr Pouches after they go through morning entry in the commons with Mr. Meyer or during lunch periods in the commons with Mr. Meyer and Mr. Morris. Students will not be allowed to leave classes to return their Yondr pouches. Lost or damaged Yondr pouches will result in a fine being added to the student's record, which will need to be paid to the cashier.
Please note that the district cell phone policy will still be enforced even after Yondr Pouches have been turned in. This means that phones are to be off and put away. Any phones confiscated after Yondr pouch turn-in days will need to be picked up by a parent.
Seniors and Senior parents/guardians: remember that all fines and fees must be paid in order to receive your graduation tickets. Students can check for fines with the librarian or cashier.
