-Students, we need your help. A great deal of trash has been left in the locker bay area after flex in the last few weeks. Much of it is from 2nd chance breakfast. We are asking you to throw away your own garbage and help keep the area clean. If we continue to have garbage left in the locker bay area then 2nd chance breakfast will be restricted to the lunchroom area only.

-On Friday, April 5 a grade review will be conducted at 1:03 PM. If you have any grade that is a D- or lower you will be restricted for Flex beginning on Monday 4/8/24 and lasting for three weeks. If you are on the restricted list you are required to stay in your assigned flex period (unless allowed to leave at teacher request).

If you would prefer to have freedom of movement and choice during your flex time, we encourage you to make every effort possible to have all grades at least a D or higher by Friday, April 5.

Students who are on the restricted list will receive an email. If you believe an error was made when the new list is announced, please see Mr. McMorrow.

-Applications for the Foley Ambassador Program for girls ages 16-20 are available in the Guidance Office and can be found online on the City of Foley’s website.  Completed applications are due to City Hall by Friday, April 12th.  Don’t miss out on this great opportunity to represent the City of Foley as a Foley Ambassador!

-A message to our student drivers from Officer Cody: 

April is distracted driving month. All Law Enforcements agencies across the state have extra patrols all month watching for distracted drivers. Here are some reminders about distracted driving. 

What can I do under the hands free law: The new law allows a driver to use their cell phone to make calls, text, listen to music or podcasts and get directions, BUT ONLY BY VOICE COMMANDS OR SINGLE-TOUCH ACTIVATION WITHOUT HOLDING THE PHONE! Remember, hands-free is not necessarily distraction-free
