Senior final exams will be given next Wednesday and Thursday, May 14 and 15.  Seniors, please also make sure you have returned any library books you may still have out, paid any fines or fees you may owe in the office, and pay any outstanding lunch bills.  Need transcripts sent out?  Then go to guidance and talk to Mrs. Welker or Mr. Dillon.  Happy Almost-Freedom, Senior Class!
