Hey everyone! Do you want to help out a local family in need this holiday season? Link Crew is hosting their annual food drive! Bring non- perishable canned and boxed goods to donation boxes in the main office, cafeteria, library, H-Courtyard, and some classrooms. The drive will run until winter break begins. Just think, if every student and staff member brings in just 2 cans we could have almost 3,000 cans to donate! 

 

Attention Freshman students and staff! The yearbook needs photos of the class of 2019 in class, in gym, at lunch, at a game! Submit them to ithaca.yearbook@gmail.com.

Come hear Mason Peck, Associate Professor in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Cornell, discuss "Science Fiction to Science Fact," Professor Peck will discuss exciting trends in space technology and a way that you can get involved in a NASA project.  Snacks provided!

 

For any students applying to PRHYLI (pronounced:  pri-li), the postmark deadline is this Friday, December 18th.  Please see Ms. Bergman in the main office if you need any help.
