Student Announcements for Thursday, Jan. 7th

Good morning!



Spring Sports begin Feb. 15, if you plan to tryout, you must be eligible by NCHSAA rules, register online and submit a current physical.



SGA's Annual Winter Links fundraising campaign is under way!  Winter Links will run throughout the entirety of January and is an initiative to raise money for local charities and unite our school in giving back.  This year we will be collecting and raising money during 5th period classes and the funds raised will be used to support "Positive Impact for Kids" - an organization that was created by our very own Leanne Joyce.  Bring in your spare change and support your community Jaguars!


Interested in going to the Dominican Republic after school is out in June? There will be a great cultural exchange and you will have a chance to connect with the community that we fundraised last year for the Water Project. Please come to an interest meeting in E224 during A or B lunch on Friday January 8th.

For all Freshman, Sophomore and Juniors
Our very own Emma Friedman will be here today in the CIC during lunch to talk about United World College!!
UWC is a two year boarding school program that brings students from across the world together to share their ideas, beliefs, and cultures, while earning the international baccalaureate diploma. It is an opportunity to challenge yourself academically and personally, to form friendships with peers from 70 different countries, and to learn more about yourself in the process. Emma will be talking about her personal experience at UWC, the mission, and how to apply if you're interested.
