After 36 school days, the first quarter is officially in the books, and it is now time to focus on the 41-day second quarter and the excitement that lies ahead.
Speaking of school work, if your first quarter grades were not to your liking, the second quarter is slightly longer than the first, so use this as more opportunity to better your grades and increase your GPA. Second quarter grades can affect the second half of Winter sports, so be sure to stay on top of your assignments. Do not fall behind!
Yesterday, a representative from Jostens presented seniors with cap and gown information, along with other graduation items. Each senior received a brochure and an order form with information on how to order these memorable items, special package deals, etc. Seniors, take advantage of the early discounts as you will save significant money.
Next is a reminder to all 8th-11th graders regarding tomorrow’s PSAT. The test will start at 8:00, so come prepared to do your best. Remember, this test analyzes your college-readiness. Seniors who have the day off are encouraged to attend a college visit or use the day as an opportunity to earn community service hours. Senior students are still expected to attend Polaris unless excused.
Moving on, in the final weeks of October, two college representatives will be visiting Brooklyn High School. Baldwin Wallace University will be here tomorrow at 10:30. Ursuline College will be here on Wednesday (October 29) at 10:30. For information about these visits and more, be sure to touch base with Mr. Ross.
Now for the surprise. Want some exciting news to look forward to? The Drama Club’s Musical was just announced yesterday, and the 2026 show will be The Addams Family. See Mrs. Cipriani for audition information.
