Prom Promise!

As prom approaches every year safety is a major concern for parents.  We have all heard horror stories of students and their dates who have been in wrecks on prom night.  I especially feel close to this issue having experienced this in high school myself.  Please read articles I have posted below.  After reading, I hope students and parents both agree that signing a Prom Promise is a wise decision.  Will you have your child sign a Prom Promise this year?  Let me know.

Ram Cram for Alabama High School Exit Exams

If your child has not passed a part of the Exit Exam, he or she is now going thru Ram Cram.  Teachers are offering specialized help in their area of study.  For example. if your child has not passed the Language part, Mrs. Finch is helping him or her for the next two weeks to hopefully brush up on their skills before the test.  This has helped a lot of students in the past.  Hopefully, this will be another successful Ram Cram.

Junior Extravaganza!

It is that time again for Juniors at Sylvania High School to showcase their talent!  This is one way the Juniors raise money to help cover prom costs. 

This years show will be on February 25th and 26th.  Each night beginning at 6:00 pm. Admission is $4. A concession stand will be available serving hotdogs, drinks, and all sorts of sweets.  The lineup for the show consists of comedic skits, singing, and dancing.  Many doorprizes will also be given away!

So everyone come out and support the Class of 2012.  I promise you will have an evening full of laughs and entertainment!
