Did you forget to order a 2022 yearbook? Good news, you still have time! Instructions about how to order a yearbook in Skyward were sent home to parents and guardians last week. You may order until May 18.  Please see Mrs. Mahmoud if you have any questions.

This message is for all Junior and Senior men heading to prom:   Find Johnny Powell today!  He won't be hard to find as he is sporting a tux!   He has a coupon to give you so that you can rent your tux at a reduced rate. Prom is just around the corner, so do not delay in reserving your tux this weekend!   

NHS is sponsoring a New and Gently Used Clothing Drive for the PRC.  Take this opportunity to clean out your closets and know that these garments are going to a good place.

The Drive will run from Thursday, April 14th through Friday, April 22nd.  Look for the boxes outside the Media Center, near the stairways and in Mrs. Templeton's room.

The Day of Silence has become a GLSEN-organized day-long commitment to silence by LGBTQ+ students all over the country and the world. It is through their silence that millions of students over the past 20+ years have spoken for those who have no voice. 

The Westmont Alliance Club invites you to participate in the Day of Silence during the School Day on April 22.  Look for more information coming soon.  After the Day of Silence, the Westmont Alliance Club will be attending the Night of Noise Celebration to Break the silence and celebrate and honor those who have been silenced due to their sexual orientation or gender identity at York High School.  You will have the chance to celebrate with students from area high school GSA organizations and have a fun night.  If you are interested in attending the event with the Westmont Alliance Club See Mrs. Jacobs for more information.  Together we can make this year's Night of Noise the loudest one yet!
