Students may arrive on Friday mornings between 7:45 a.m. and 7:55 a.m. (Bus Students) to do a 15 minute work out assigne by the teacher on duty. Students must report which day they are there to make-up when they arrive. If a student misses more than one day a week, the student must then come in 2 consecutive Friday's to make up points.
