Homework Help Center Open Tues. – Fri. This Month’s Outstanding Helper: T. J. Moore

Sign up for Homework Help Homework Help will be closed Tues. – Thurs. next week due to PASS testing. Sixth grade members may sign up to work at the end of this meeting. You must be on time and in the Homework Help room by 7:10. You will earn one service point for each morning you work. Be sure to mark your calendar in your agenda.

If you fail to show up three times, you will no longer be able to sign up to work until the next month. Be sure to bring materials to work on in the event you do not have anyone to tutor. You should always be a good role model and study while you are waiting on others to arrive for help.

Adopt-A- Road Our next pick up date is Saturday, May 24 at 9:00.

Service Points Everyone who was on time should have gotten their card initialed. If you are wearing your pin or t-shirt today, you should have received an extra signature. Only one extra signature…not one for each. How the points system works:

You will be responsible for remembering to bring your card to each meeting or activity. You will get your card initialed by an officer or an advisor each time you attend a club or committee meeting, participate in litter patrol pick up, or contribute to service projects.

If you misplace your card, you will have to ask for a new one, but you will not be given credit for any signatures on the old one. If you are not on time to the monthly meetings, you may quietly come in and join the group, but your card will not be initialed. You must maintain at least a 3.5 GPA (at least 2 As and 2 Bs) each nine weeks. If you do not you will receive a letter notifying you of your probation until the next nine weeks.

Sixth graders must earn 15 service points this semester! Fifth graders must earn 8 service points this semester!

Your points will be recorded and a cumulative record will be kept. Members not in good standing at the end of the semester will be notified. This can be due to lack of participation, academics, or behavior, i.e. ISS.
