There’s no pool!!
Agendas are valuable, hold on to yours
Lunches are 30 minutes, you can sit
wherever you want. A lot of IB students sit
together, just look for them!
You can go to your locker or restroom in
between classes as long as you get to
class on time. Where’s my locker???
Lock-outs count! What’s a “lock-out”???
School starts at 8:40, but the building
opens at 8:00 (and so does Guidance!)
More Tidbits!

The “Pit” is the big staircase. It’s usually
VERY crowded, so avoid it if you have little
time to get to class
The EBB shows announcements in the
morning (Tiger News Network) and
throughout the day
Most students are picked up from
afterschool activities at the horseshoe, it’s
also where the doors are opened early
