Hey guys, listen up!  We know a lot of you out there have “senioritis” and can’t wait to graduate.  But whether you’re going to college or looking for a job, there’s one thing you must remember to do first:  REGISTER WITH SELECTIVE SERVICE.  Ok, here’s what you’ve got to know.  If you are a male living in America, you MUST register with Selective Service within 30 days of your 18th birthday.  If not, you are breaking the law, and you risk losing out on good jobs with the government, money for college, and job training.  And if you’re not a U.S. citizen and are looking to become one, you could be denied if you do not register.

So remember guys, before the “senioritis” completely takes over your brain, register with Selective Service.  You owe it to your country, and you owe it to yourself.  Register on-line at www.sss.gov or pick up a registration card at any post office.  If you have any questions, just ask Mr. Jackson, your selective service registrar.

Computer Lab:  You must have your ID to gain access to a computer in the computer lab. No ID - No Computer!                                                                                                       9/11
