475 stocking stuffer items were donated by West Morgan students to be donated to the NCC as a FCCLA service project. Mrs. Schuster’s focus group collected the most with 150 items. Thank you to everyone who donated and for making a difference for the children. Merry Christmas.

All WM students will get into the basketball games on Tuesday against Brooks for free.  

Semester Exams are Wednesday (1, 3, 5, 7 Periods) and Thursday (2, 4, 6, 8 Periods).  Friday will be make-up exams for students who have gotten approval from Coach Harris to do so.  School will be dismissed at noon on Friday and buses will run at that time.  In regards to exams, a student may check in / check out, but the proper check out procedures will be required to do so.

Christmas break is December 18-January 3.  Students will return on Tuesday, January 4, 2022.

Students who need to change their schedule.  Please, email Mrs. Banks to request a schedule change form (nabanks@morgank12.org), and she will send you a Google form.  Schedule change requests will be accepted until the end of the day on December 16th.  Adjustments to schedules will ONLY be considered for a valid reason. Submitting this request does in no way guarantee your class(es) will change. If your schedule is changed, you will be emailed a copy of your new schedule during Christmas Break. 

SENIORS:  There is a College Counts Scholarship available.  See Mrs. Banks or our social media for more information.

There has been little interest in PROM thus far (meaning ticket sales are low). If interest does not increase, we may be forced to cancel. Prom is Sat, Mar 12 at Ingalls Harbor in Decatur. Tickets are $50 each until Dec. 17. Price increases to $75 next semester. See Mrs. Holiday to purchase tickets.

2022 Yearbook school sales are CLOSED for this semester. Money cannot be accepted from now until we return in January.
