  As we enter the 5th week of school, I have some updates from this week and 豆奶成人直播 for next week to share with you.
  
  This week we had four consecutive days of false fire alarms. We are not sure what is causing the alarm, but we are sure they were all false alarms. Each day the alarm came from the same room, at about the same time, and the main panel in the office indicated that there was an issue prior to the alarm sounding. We checked the room each time and the alarm had not been pulled. We are working to resolve the issue.
  
  Today, we sent home an Educational Benefits Form with all students whose families have not yet completed the form. It is important that all families complete the form.
  
  Next week, Thursday the 14th is Back to School Night. Families are invited to campus from 5:30-7:30 PM. We will begin in the cafeteria from 5:30-6:00 with a parent welcome and 豆奶成人直播 session. Class visits will go from 6:00-7:30. Students will bring home a half sheet paper with more 豆奶成人直播 on Tuesday.
  
  
  Friday is Titan Color Day- Wear Black, Blue or Gray. Grade Level assemblies will be held 1st-3rd period.
  Progress reports will be given to students 7th period.
  Friday is a minimum day for the Middle School. Class is dismissed at 1:35.
  
  Students are required to wear their student ID’s and Lanyards while on campus. Students without their ID are printed a replacement ID. Replacement ID’s cost $2.00 and replacement lanyards are $3.00. Please remind your student each day about the ID requirement.
  
  When dropping off students or items before 9:00 AM please go to the turn around gate. After 9:00 AM please go to the main entrance and call the school 510-231-1429. Someone from the office will go to the gate to get the item(s) or let the student in.
