Please read this article.

And this is why when we tell you to practice a drill, your cells phones need to be SILENT, YOU need to be SILENT, you must move to here you have been told IMMEDIATELY, and you must follow ALL directions given by the teacher in the classroom you're in. Any attention you bring - laughing, talking, sneezing, coughing, a cell phone buzzing or ringing...can all be the difference between living to go home that day or leaving in a body bag.
Yes, it's really that serious.
2 more kids who got up & went to school this morning are not going home. Don't ever let it be you, and don't ever perform an action that causes someone else to never go home again.

Interested in sports, community events, photography, poetry, & other school activities? If so, Ms. Buonaspina, Mr. Chamberlain, & Mr. Roderick would love you to participate:
Now that the online version of the paper is up and running, please encourage your students to check out the content and find ways to contribute themselves! We have an empty portfolio section just waiting for creative writers to fill it. We are also seeking sports writers and student athletes who can share photos and information about their games. We are further continually looking for photographers, artists, graphic designers, film students, and writers. We hope this new chapter will open many doors for our students and continue to shed light on the great things we do in Brentwood.
