There’s also no playing hacky sack in the building!
We LOVE that our students are off their phones connecting with others, just please do it outside
and not in the building.

We have some important schedule changes coming up! Please note our new schedule for YEARBOOK DEDICATION DAY on 5/15 and our FINAL EXAM SCHEDULE below.

 

SO YOU THINK YOU ARE INTERESTED IN BUSINESS???
THIS OPPORTUNITY COULD BE FOR YOU!!

On May 23 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., The Culture Lab is partnering with CliftonLarsonAllen to host a Student Day for young people to gain exposure to accounting, financial services, and professional career pathways.

The experience will include a tour of the CLA facility, time to connect with professionals, exposure to potential careers in this field, and free lunch for students. CLA is also hoping to identify students interested in their paid internship program, which makes this an even more valuable opportunity.

Because I know how much you care about students and helping them access real opportunities, I wanted to ask if you’d be willing to share the registration form with your families.

Registration Form:
Location: 14815 Ballantyne Village Way Charlotte, NC  28277 United States

Linked here is info on The Culture Lab and CLA.

Here is a quick update about M Balrain’s upcoming trip,
Spring Break 2027 Automotive Innovation in Germany and Italy!

If you’re interested in joining, Friday, May 8th is the enrollment deadline. Those who enroll by then will also receive a $200 tour scholarship and qualify for 7 days of risk-free enrollment.

All of the trip details, pricing, and parent FAQs are available on the enrollment page: www.eftours.com/3076598FZ

Congrats to all who got inducted into Tri-M Honor Society yesterday!
