To assist students in selecting a combination of 2018-19 courses that will challenge, yet not overwhelm, our counselors and teachers have developed a schedule of lunchtime presentations starting on Feb. 13 to provide information on course and teacher expectations as well as an indication of the time commitment. Information regarding math and most world language options will be presented to students during their current courses.

On Friday, February 22, the Panther community will come together for our annual Walk For Life event to raise money to help support cancer patients and their families. Our beneficiaries are the City of Hope and the Cancer Support Community in Redondo Beach.

The City of Hope, founded in 1913, is a world leader in the research and treatment of cancer, and is one of only 47 comprehensive cancer centers in the nation.

The Cancer Support Community offers free programs for cancer patients, and their families and loved-ones. Their goal is to help cancer patients recover from the physical and emotional effects of cancer.

To participate in the 2019 Walk for Life (in person or virtually!), please complete this WFL Participation Form and return it with your minimum $30 donation to the ASB room P115 no later than Wednesday, February 20. Pen Students must have their 5th and 6th period teachers initial the form because they will miss class for the Walk. A parent must also sign the front AND back of the form.
