Good luck — and thanks for celebrating Black History Month with us!
SHOE DRIVE: "The middle school is sponsoring a shoe drive, so if you have any shoes from flipflops to cowboy boots, bring them to the box in the office.' You don't have to do this one exactly but this is like the one in the middle school.
🎓 Seniors
All Senior Trip payments are due by Friday, February 20th.
There will be a chaperone meeting Sunday, February 22 at 2:00 PM in the high school cafeteria.
👗 Formal Wear Donation Drive Announcement 👔
Do you have formal dresses or men’s dress apparel that you no longer need? Consider donating them to help other students get ready for upcoming formal and semi-formal events!
Bring any clean, gently used formal dresses or men’s dress wear to Mrs. O’Toole’s room before the end of the month. As a thank-you, you’ll receive a small prize from the office for your donation.
Your generosity helps make special events accessible for everyone — thank you for supporting your fellow students and showing that Panther pride in action!
⏰ Detentions This Week
Detentions will be held today & tomorrow after school only this week.
❤️ Panther Help Box
The new Panther Help Box is located right outside of the counseling office door.
If you’d like to connect with a counselor or share a concern with administration but prefer not to email or meet in person, simply fill out a slip and place it in the box.
This is another easy way for Panthers to reach out when support is needed.
🌟 Girls State Info Meeting
TODAY at 10:00 AM, all junior girls will be invited to the media center for a brief 15-minute Girls State information meeting.
🐾 Panther Pride Pass Winners
Congratulations to our winners: Jolie Bertuca, David Huff, Greyson Danneffel, Michael Wigent, Braelyn Campbell, Layla Klimkiewicz, Noah Fuller, Jose Cruz, Bryce Strong & Alayna Cowgill. Please stop by the office before 3rd hour to claim your prize.

At this time, please stand.
The privilege of this day is possible thanks to those who have fought — and continue to fight — for the freedoms we enjoy. Please place your right hand over your heart and remove a hat if you are wearing one.
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands: one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
That’s all for today’s announcements.
Make it a great day, or not Panthers — the choice is yours!
