Correction:

There was an error in this week's issue of the Metropolis Planet regarding the Parent/Teacher Conferences. The date printed was incorrect. The Unit 1 conferences are scheduled for Tuesday, October 28, 2025. Consequently, students will not be in attendance on that day. Please note that Monday, October 27th remains a regular school day. We will request a correction in next week's publication.

Thank you.

Tomorrow is Domino's Pizza day! Remember students need to have money in their lunch account when ordering an extra slice ($2). Also, students can order extras of any entree ($2) but again they need to have enough money in their account. Checks or cash can be sent to the school to put on their account or you can do it online. Thank you for your cooperation.
