Mr. Dunn leaving now to pick up the Green Ridge students
Students who have been riding the van who live on Green Ridge will be picked up tomorrow after buses get in. We had a driver have to call off tonight so we're going to have to double route for those students from Green Ridge.
ATTENTION CTC SENIORS: Herff Jones will be returning to the CTC during lunch on September 28 to collect graduation orders. If you did not receive an order form see Kim Hawk at the CTC or Mrs. Schuler at the high school. Any questions, please feel free to contact Mrs. Schuler.

This is year 5 of our HOPE 180, After School Programs and the end of a grant cycle. It has been a prosperous journey and we have truly made new friends and discovered new worlds. In this final year, we will be making some technology additions to our Enterprise. These additions will include:
Disney Codeillusion is a self-paced coding program that leads students into the skills needs for Game Design, Digital Media Art, and Graphic-Web Design.
Sphero is an Exploration into STEM-based Coding and Robotics.
Also, we will be adding some VR and Robotics Programs in the Winter.
We will continue to serve as a Base for E-Sports and Digital Gaming.
We also offer Homework Help and Incorporate Math and Literacy into our Curriculum.
And we will always stick to our primary mission, providing a safe environment for developing healthy relationships through family-like games, activities, and conversations.

This week at Western High School we are holding a food drive for our local food pantry. It is running all week long. The administrators and athletic directors have decided to support this effort and to accept canned and non-perishable food items in place of an admission fee this week to all HOME sporting events at Western. This includes High School and Junior High Home games. When you bring 5 items or more to the game, you will get 1 person in FREE to the sporting event. This also includes any student and adult from the opposing school as well. Cans and non-perishable items can be given to the person taking the admission money at the games. If you have any questions please contact Carolyn Wessel at the High School.
We had a couple of drivers call off this morning. We're going to have to split Donna's route like we sometimes do in the evenings. Times won't change much but kids live on her route only picked up by a different bus than normal in the mornings. Again, times shouldn't be much different just a different driver this morning. Thanks.
Here's a reminder about the road construction on 124. The signs make it seem like it's all of 124 but it's just from the stone quarry to Sinking Spring. I've attached the schedule. Work will be each day from 8-3. Also, we'll be picking up Green Ridge kids in the van during the construction on that road. Van "delivery" will start this afternoon and go until construction is complete.
We've had several people ask about the road construction on 124. The work will be done during school hours and won't impact buses but could impact parents picking kids up. I'm attaching a picture of the schedule. All of the work will be from Drybone Rd. to Sinking Spring.
HS volleyball is home tomorrow night against North Adams. JV starts at 5:30. The theme is blackout the green devils. All staff, students and fans are encouraged to wear a black Western shirt to school and game.
