MISCELLANEOUS

No TDAP, No schedule! A new State law now requires that all incoming 7th to 12th graders get a whooping cough booster shot, called Tdap, before entering school. You will not be able to get your schedule or be able to start school next year until you receive the shot and documentation is brought to the school office! Have your parents contact your doctor now to schedule this booster shot. If you have any questions about the shot or where to get it, please see the staff member in charge of immunizations in the office.

Need Driver’s Education? Your place is at the Adult School. Cost is $125. There will be two sessions offered this summer. Session 1 is June 20, 21 & 22. Session 2 is August 8, 9 & 10. Applications are now available in your house office or see Mr. Caruso in Room 77 for both an application and details.


From wikipedia:
Yuri Kochiyama (born May 19, 1921) is a Japanese American human rights activist.

Kochiyama was born Mary Yuriko Nakahara in San Pedro, California. After the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941, Kochiyama's father was imprisoned the same day. Her family, sent to the Jerome War Relocation Center in Jerome, Arkansas, were among the 120,000 Japanese Americans interned during the Second World War. Two of her brothers joined the U.S. Army.
