Reminder to all students that the gym is off limits when unsupervised (no exceptions). This means that the only time you can be in the gym is at lunch and/or during your Phys Ed class.
Also, please be courteous when using the gym at lunch. We are noticing lots of spills and garbage being left behind (as well as basketballs etc. being left out). Please do your part and clean up after yourselves.
