Student Announcements for Wednesday, April 6th

Good morning,


There will be a mandatory Peer Buddy meeting on Thursday, April 7th during B Lunch in E114 to discuss and report progress/challenges from the month of March. This is the monthly follow up meeting so all mentors should please be in attendance.


The SECU club is collecting small, travel sized toiletries (like the ones in hotel rooms) to place in the guest rooms at the SECU family house.  Please consider donating some of these items. You can bring them into the main office.  Thank you.


There are only 75 yearbooks left!  Make sure to buy yours today at Jostens.


Are you a leader? Do you enjoy competition? Do you have ideas for a new or improved product or service? There will be DECA Interest Meeting on April 7th in the Media Center during both A & B Sessions of SMART Lunch. We will discuss our tentative plans for our 2016-17 school year agenda, as well as go over the process of how we will elect our officers for next year!

Attention: people who want to wear a tux to prom! Men’s Warehouse is offering a fundraiser for our Prom 2016.  We will get a portion of the proceeds for every tux rented by a Carrboro High School student.  Make sure you let them know that you are from CHS when you go to get fitted, and you can also ask about being a prom rep to earn yourself a free tux rental.  


Seniors interesting in attending Senior Day at Durham Tech Community College on April 20th should see their school counselor this week for more information. Permission forms are due back before Spring Break.


Attention EVERYONE! Boro Blowout is scheduled for April 22nd. This is our day-long celebration and stress reliever before exams.
