She will also be speaking and signing copies of Capsized! at Forever Books on Thursday, March 7, at 7pm.

Upton Variety Show-
The Upton Variety Show is less than three weeks away. It will take place on Saturday, March 23rd at the John & Dede Auditorium at SJHS. This week practice is after school on Wednesday and Thursday until 4:30 PM.
Dropping off in the Morning and Pickup after-
Please use caution when dropping your daughter/son off in the morning, and picking up after school. We have had a few incidences where cars are cutting in front of buses, driving too fast in the parking lot, trying to pass where it is not a good idea to do so, etc. If it is a morning that you are in a hurry you should leave earlier. We do not want to jeopardize the safety of our students.
