Senior Efosa Eboigbe receives his student planner from Mr. Mahne in the line just outside the Student Commons on Tuesday, August 1. Seniors, juniors, and sophomores attended the first of two Book Days that kicked off the 2013 – 2014 school year.

Book Day signals the official start of the new school year and if Tuesday was any indication, the 2013 – 2014 school year will be a smooth one.

Seniors, juniors, and sophomores navigated with ease through the labyrinth of stations and tables set up throughout the school building. Stations for student ID photos, textbook pick-up, and P.E. uniform purchasing were just a few of the many stops made by Blue Jays throughout the day.

Freshmen and Pre-Freshmen Book Day

Want to navigate Book Day successfully? Blue Jays need to make sure all their ducks are lined up: time to shave that summer beard, make sure hair is trimmed to regulation length, and that all required forms are signed and brought to school on Book Day.

When arriving for Book Day, students should line up in the green stairwell to be directed into the second floor hallway. Book Day stations will begin outside of room 227.
