• Tip of the Week
  • Vending machines are provided for student use under the regulations of the district’s Wellness Policy. Students bringing their own lunches must eat them in the lunchroom, high school commons, or an area supervised by a staff member.
• Quarrier High School Students: Please refrain from bringing glass containers into the school. We understand accidents happen but it is a lot easier to clean up something that was spilled from a plastic cup/bottle than a glass bottle. The janitors are concerned about broken glass and ask that you bring in only plastic containers to hold your water, coffee and foo foo drinks. If you have any questions, please see Eve in the high school office. Thanks!
