There has been a change in the guidance

There will be a Halloween Dance on Thursday,
October 26th from 7pm to 10pm
Student fees are to be paid online. As soon as student fees are paid, students

There certainly have been a lot of natural
disasters and bad news lately and in times of loss and tragedy we can begin to
lose hope… or… we can chose to bring hope. We can help
bring hope to students and staff in Puerto Rico who have suffered major
infrastructure damage from two powerful hurricanes last month. Most of the
island is without power and water weeks after the storms hit and schools have
been closed for some time. Today, of the 1,200 schools in the state, only 22
have opened in a limited capacity. http://www.cnn.com/interactive/2017/09/world/hurricane-maria-puerto-rico-cnnphotos/
We
have a long history of helping others with district and school campaigns…
Haiti, Japan, Nepal and we want to add Puerto Rico public education to our
list. Taking action is a win win for all of us! We want to try and get funds to
a local on the ground charity that will be able to help. … The AMPR will be
able to direct needed help to teachers and their families who have been
devastated by these storms so that they may get back to the important work of
teaching children. If you wish to help
support this fundraising effort we
have setup an optional item online “Puerto Rico –
Choose to Bring Hope” for
all schools that will give parents the opportunity of making a contribution
on-line at your convenience.
