• TEMS students- help us speed up Chromebook repairs by not putting stickers on your Chromebook. These have been taking a long time to remove, which is delaying work orders. If you have a Chromebook in repair, our IT department is working as hard as we can to get these back to you quickly. We appreciate your help taking care of your devices!

All allies and supportive friends are welcome. So make a plan to stay after, arrange a ride if you're not taking the late bus, and bring yourself and a friend down to room 145 for our third SAGA meeting of the year! Not sure if SAGA is for you? Have other questions about what we do and how you can be involved? Contact Ms. Carver or stop by her classroom, room 145. Can't wait to see you there!

Be sure to bring 2 or more pencils and a calculator.  Chromebooks will NOT be allowed.  If you have any questions, see Mrs. Goldman in room 267.
