LOCKERS You will probably have your own locker. The lockers have combination locks. Some students use a lock and a key. Do not share your combination or key with other students. If you forget your combination, or you can’t find your key, you teacher will be able to help you. It is a good idea to practice with your lock at home during the summer so you will be able to open your locker on the 1st try. Don’t let other students put things in YOUR locker. This is not a good idea.

Student Restrooms/Bathrooms This is a student restroom. You will need to keep your planner with you in your class if you would like to use the restroom. Your teacher will sign it and it will be your pass to the bathroom/restroom.

The Cafeteria You will have 30 minutes for lunch and you will also have at least 2 choices for your main meal. If you have extra money you may buy an ice cream or a snack.
