Aggie Weekly-April 28th

Good Afternoon Students, Parents, and Community Members:

This week’s HIGH 5 CLUB Senior of the Week-NOAH MARCHESSEAULT

Arbor Day: Each year, our Arbor Dept hosts Arbor Day, where they plant, trim, and trim trees on our campus.  

  

Attention Class of 2023: 

Dear Students and Parents/Guardians of the Class of 2023,

Graduation is rapidly approaching and we are making final preparations for this memorable event, which is set for Thursday, June 1st at 6:30 pm.  The event will take place on our baseball field.   If weather impacts an evening ceremony, then we will have a rain date on Friday, June 2nd. Graduates will be given 4 tickets. The tickets will give you access to the seating on the field.  If you have more than four guests, they will be able to stand/sit along the fence (see graphic below), and they can bring their own seat if they prefer.  We will provide the tickets at the mandatory graduation rehearsals on Tuesday, May 30th and Wednesday, May 31st at 8:30 am.  Please see the sketches below that layout graduation guidelines and click here for the parking plan.  

 

To help prepare for graduation, we wanted to provide families with as much information regarding logistics as possible.  Students are NOT allowed to decorate their caps for graduation. Handicap and elderly seating will be available (limited quantity) on the field facing the graduates (please click here to complete the elderly/handicap seating accommodations request).  We will be providing transportation from the parking lot to the seating area on the field. Parents will be facing the graduates (overlooking the farm) on the field, and graduates will be facing home plate.  

Graduation rehearsal is mandatory. If you do not participate in the graduation rehearsal you will not be able to walk at graduation.  We are using this date to help distribute 4 tickets (1 vehicle per family/graduate is highly recommended) to each graduate.   Students will be reporting to the high school at 5:00 pm to conduct a mini rehearsal on graduation day.  

Parking is limited on the south side of the campus that cannot accommodate all guests, so we are encouraging that graduates and families use the same vehicle to come to the ceremony.  There will be handicap parking along the tree line at Gilbert Hall and the student parking lot has approximately 90 spaces (combined).   Additional parking will be at the hayfield.

10 Healthy Tips for Spring:

1. Stay Hydrated- afternoons spent working or playing sports can be dehydrating. Keep your refillable water bottle with you during and after school  

2. Wear Sunscreen- your skin is considered the largest organ in your body that protects you from pathogens and substances within our environments that are harmful to our bodies- RE-APPLY, RE-APPLY, RE-APPLY. Skin care is important 

3. Seasonal allergies- if you are one who suffers from seasonal allergies you may want to have a parent or guardian reach out to your doctor about medication such a claritin that can decrease allergy symptoms

4. Insect Bites- be aware that insects are now coming out of hibernation and coming to life after a cold winter. Be mindful to check for ticks and watch for bees, especially those who are allergic. Carry EPIPEN if prescribed 

5. Keep up good handwashing practices

6. Get outside- enjoy the warm temperatures. Take this opportunity to get out from behind the tv, computer and cell phones and soak up the sun and fresh air 

7. Maintain your sleep schedule- sleep is important to rejuvenated and repair your body after a long day 

8. Eat healthy- seasonal fruits and vegetables can be found at local farms and farmer markets. Incorporate seasonal fruits /vegetables into your diet 

9. Practice water safety- wear a life jacket when out on boats

10. Learn to identify poison ivy/oak/sumac- avoiding plants such as these will prevent all skin reaction such an itchy rash
