Please ask one of your teachers to check your locker once it is cleared and have them check you off as having a cleaned out locker. If you'd rather have Ms. DeBruhl check you off after school, she is available after 3:30 pm each day. Please email her at [email protected] to let her know what day you will be ready to have your locker checked.
