Has your student picked up their ASB card yet? If they have already paid but have not received it, please ask your student to come and see me in the ASB office. Also, Freshmen Parents if your student wants to attend the Homecoming dance they will need to return the
dance contract they received. Tickets will be on sale in a few weeks!

The Storm Band performed at
Western this week at the
3rd annual Paint Bellingham Blue
celebration. The Drumline marched
over 1,000 WWU incoming
freshmen, alumni, faculty and staff
from Red Square to the Herald
Building, and the Band performed
as the new students signed a Vi-
kings banner on the wall of the
building. Go Storm!

Senior pictures will be due FRIDAY OCTOBER 26th. Please only send high
resolution photos; this means 300 dpi resolution and at least 3 in. dimensions. We'll resize
the image to fit the size of the space, but can't expand a smaller picture to fit without
it being blurry. Your photographer should know about resolution (and have the editing
programs to check it), so if you're not sure ask them! Only send in ONE PICTURE. We can
not make the final decision for you and will ask you to pick one if you send multiple. DO
NOT SEND SCREENSHOTS FROM YOUR PHONE; this will make the picture blurry because
screenshots are usually low resolution (and a small size). You can email your senior pic-
tures to Miss Holmberg at [email protected] or drop it off to F211
on a USB drive.

Attention Fall Sports…
PAAC Mandatory Training Wednesday, October 3rd at 6:00pm.
The PTSA is holding mandatory training for every Parent
Athletic/Activity Committee (PAAC) group on October 3rd at
6:00pm in the Career Center at Squalicum High School. The
Career Center is across the foyer from the Main Office. We love
our PAACs as they are comprised of people who go the extra
mile to help our kids' extracurricular activities succeed at
Squalicum. Each PAAC must send one representative from their group for this training on the
essential elements to be a PAAC in good standing with the PTSA. If you have any questions,
contact Allison Ronney and Shelley Simons at [email protected]. Looking forward to
meeting you then
