I have emailed the site manager several times and they are working on the glitches. Please email me if there is something you really need and can't find it on here.

They get these points by being bucket fillers throughout the building, when they are in cultural arts, when they bring in their homework, when they do something for someone else, acts of kindness etc. We voted on Monday and had a P.J.
