Breakfast and Lunch

From the Tech Department
Students should take care not to over pack their bags while their computers in them. This has been causing some damaged screens. The Tech Department does not loan out chargers during the school day. Please make sure you bring your charger to school each day or make sure your laptop is fully charged when you arrive at school.
