Hello seniors!
Monday you will be going to the auditorium during SRT to submit your senior quote and vote for senior superlatives. Please take this weekend to think about your senior quote because you will have Monday only to submit it during SRT.  
Here are the rules regarding senior quotes:
Senior quotes must not include hate speech, bullying, or demeaning language. Additionally, they must not include expletives, "coded" language, or inappropriate language.  NO ACRONYMS. They must be under 75 characters in order to fit. Please cite a source for your quote if it belongs to an outside party. Senior quotes that are inappropriate will be discarded, and students will be denied the opportunity to resubmit. PLEASE also note, we need most, if not all, quotes to run the quotes in the yearbook this year. Please contribute a quote if you'd like to keep the tradition alive.
