Message from Selective Service
The Selective Service System is asking that we please remind students that under current law all male US citizens between 18–25 years of age, born after January 1, 1960 are required to register within 30 days of their 18th birthday.
A young man who fails to register with Selective Service may be ineligible for opportunities that may be important to his future. He must register to be eligible for federal student financial aid, state-funded student financial aid-including A+, most federal employment, some state employment, security clearance for contractors, job training under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (formerly known as the Workforce Investment Act), and U.S. citizenship for immigrant men.
Go to https://www.sss.gov/ to register.
School buildings have been closed for the rest of the school year. Instruction packets will continue until May 20. Tuesday food pick up from 4 to 6 continues. Completed packets may be dropped off in the food line. More information will be available next week.
The Bakersfield FFA Greenhouse will have plants available for pickup outside the school Greenhouse each Tuesday from 4 to 6 PM. Due to Covid 19, plants will be set out on tables outside the greenhouse and customers will not be allowed inside the greenhouse. We would ask that customers gather their own plants and calculate their own price totals. Please bring exact change if paying cash. Please insert cash or check in a money container that we have available. See attachments for plant list and prices.

The first of March the sophomores had the opportunity to tour South Central Career Center. This is the vocation school in West Plains our students attend for two years to receive a certification upon completion. I ask the parents of the sophomores to discuss the idea of attending SCCC their junior and senior years. This is a commentment and a privledge, not a requirement. Students need to have a 2.5 GPA, on task to graduate, and good attendance. If your child is interested, please send me an email letting me know your child is interested in enrolling. If they meet these requirements, then I will provide you with directions to have your child complete an application from SCCC. Not all applicants will be accepted. SCCC has opened their enrollment process,so the sooner you email me the better. Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon.
The Foyer will be open Monday-Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
