Good Morning Senior Academy!

Students Stay updated:

Student Council Voting Ballots and Speeches: The speeches will be during 3rd period today. QR Codes to vote for their grades will be provided during class. Voting will end at 4pm and students will only be allowed to vote once. 

September 4 was originally scheduled as an early release day and Monday is scheduled as a Holiday.  The Labor Day Weekend usually marks the end of summer and the last getaway.
