| Bringing food to school for Students-due to district policy, you may only bring in food for your student. Thanks for your help in this matter.ATTENTION SENIOR PARENTS: We are asking parents/guardians of seniors to write a letter to your son/daughter (please do not let them read it or see it before hand), put your child’s full name and homeroom teacher’s name on the front of the envelope, and mail or drop it off at North by Thursday April 5th — NO EMAILED LETTERS will be printed. Hand write or type a letter to your son/daughter, then either drop it off in the main office or mail it to North, in care of Dawn Jones, the TASC sponsor. There is no specific format or length; there is no “right or wrong” way to compose your letter. Most letters reminisce about memories and often contain sentiments that you may not often tell your child– wishing them luck and giving them tidbits of advice for their next stage in life. Think of this as a chance to let your child know how much you love him/her, how proud you are of him/her, any hopes you have for his/her future, etc. Please do not put any special items or photos in your letters that can not be replaced. If you have any questions, you can e-mail them to Dawn Jones at[email protected]. 4/5Jones
