“Homework—Saturday School is open this Saturday from 9am to 12pm. Take advantage of a place to get some tutoring, computers, a place to work w/peers, and a welcome atmosphere too. Enter by carpeted hallway near media center to rooms 77 and 78.”

Once again, Powder Puff Game DVDs will be sold for $15, but this week they can be pre-ordered for ONLY $10 in Coach Zuber’s Room 306. Hurry, only 150 copies will be made.

Attn. AP Students: All students taking the AP test(s) must complete identifying information on their answer sheets prior to taking the test, so they won’t have to take time to do this on exam day. This will give you more time to focus on the test! Please make sure you go to the Reference Room (next to the Library) before school, during your lunch, or right after school. The dates are Monday 4/18 for students with last names A thru H; Wednesday 4/20 for students with last names I thru P; and Friday 4/22 for students with the last names Q thru Z.

From wikipedia:
Thomas Hart Benton (April 15, 1889 - January 19, 1975) was an American painter and muralist. Along with Grant Wood and John Steuart Curry, he was at the forefront of the Regionalist art movement. His fluid, almost sculpted paintings showed everyday scenes of life in the United States. Though his work is perhaps best associated with the Midwest, he created scores of paintings of New York - where he lived for over 20 years, Martha’s Vineyard - where he summered for much of his adult life, the American South and the American West.
