School service and information regarding demerits:

Students can check how many demerits they have in the following locations: outside the student store, in the quad near the library entrance, and in the 100 building hallway near the guidance entrance. Students are responsible for keeping track of their demerits. Students can clear 6 demerits by attending Saturday School. If students cannot make this Saturday, they can come to any of the Saturday school dates listed on the website. Students can also clear demerits by serving detention and/or school service. Students have the opportunity to clear demerits through school service at lunch on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. 

 

Detentions will be held on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 7:14 a.m. to 8:24 a.m., during 0 period in room 139, from 2:43 p.m. to 3:40 p.m., during 6^th period in room 139 and after school in room 128 from 3:45 pm to 4:45 pm.

Detention during 0 and 6^th period will be held in the guidance conference room, located across the hall from the guidance office. After school detention will be held in room 128.  There is no eating, sleeping, talking or phone usage allowed in detention.
