Week 23
We hope students had a productive CLD Day. We will be reviewing CLD attendance forms on Tuesday during Advisory as it is pertinent that all students complete CLD attendance form for credit for this day.
It is a busy weekend–we wish all Y&G students well at their conference in Sacramento and all students attending the Black College Expo in Pasadena.
Happy Presidents’ Day Holiday Weekend, we have another four-day week this week.
