DSC_4757The Winter Dance and freshman lock-in will be held on Friday, January 5th, from 8:00 – 11:00 pm (dance) and 11:00 pm-6: 30 am (lock-in).  All classes and guests are welcome to attend the dance, but the lock-in is for Maggie Walker freshmen only.  Tickets are $10 for the dance or the lock-in and $15 for both.  If students plan on bringing a guest from outside the MLWGS community, they must submit a form, which can be found on ItsLearning or can be picked up in Ms. Valenta Williams’ office in room 100.  A parent memo and permission form is available in ItsLearning, and a hard copy will be sent home with students before winter break. Tickets will be on sale Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of the week after the break (1/3-1/5), and students attending the lock-in must bring their signed permission form along with payment in order to obtain a ticket.  If you have any questions, please contact the freshmen class sponsor, John Piersol, at [email protected].
