Are your grades not exactly where you, or your parents, want them to be? If so, please consider attending Dubuque Senior's FAST program every Friday from 7:30AM-8:30AM in our library. FAST tutors are willing to assist you with everything from studying for a test, to writing a speech, or completing homework. We'd love to see you at FAST this Friday.

Potential Respect Retreat Student Leaders--I have some good and not so good news. Good news is we had a huge turn out for students wanting to be a student leaders at our Respect Retreat next year. 115 students to be exact. Not so good news is Mrs. Brokus only needs 70 student leaders, so she will need to determine who will have the opportunity to help out. You know her, the first thing she is going to consider is who is wearing their ID every day. If you are serious about being a leader to our 9th graders next year, be sure you are being a positive leader this year. Wear your ID and be good. Go Rams!!


Attention Class of 2018, if you are interested in being on the Graduation Committee please stop in at the Main Office to sign up. Committee Meeting will be Monday at 11:00.
