Week Fourteen Week Fourteen Dates: Monday July 1st through Sunday July 7th Season: Summer 2007 Month: Early July
Announcements:
One week down... many to go. We hope that everyone's first week back to classes went well. Sometimes it can be difficult to get back into the swing of things after a vacation from classes. To help get back into the groove of school the administration would like to help students organize study groups. Outside of the library on the large bulletin board will be several sign up sheets for groups that would like to get together and go over class materials. These will be self managed groups, though if you would care for added help from a teacher feel free to contact a staff member and they will likely help if they are available.
Here at Halcyon, the administration likes to try and recognize major holidays from all countries and all religions. While there are no celebrations put on the school, the opportunity for students to use the school grounds to celebrate is always welcome. With such a large number of students hailing from the United States a group has organized a small magically enhanced fireworks show over the water, this THURSDAY the fourth of July. Students and staff who wish to join in the celebration are more than welcome to gather on the beach, we are told there will be a bar-b-que on the beach before the firework show begins.
A few reminders… Students under the age of sixteen who have been at halcyon less than one full school year, may not leave campus except with an authorized chaperone. This may be an older student, who is entitled to leave campus alone, but they must be authorized to escort on a case by case basis.
Those qualified to leave the school are encouraged to do so, but please remember that Bacaloa is an island populated with supernaturals. As such it is likely a drastic change from wherever you came from. There is a small village a few miles from Halcyon, a decent walk if you're inclined or you may take advantage of the taxi cabs, with Halcyon picking up the tab. There you can find shops of all kinds, bars, a movie theater, a hotel, and even a small mall. Perhaps most interesting however, is the Imaginarium, a game emporium of sorts.
Remember the curfew for students under eighteen is 10 PM on weekdays and midnight on Friday and Saturday. No such limits for those over eighteen. Students are not to hang out in other houses. This is for your safety. Also, male and female should keep to their own floors. Again, doing so is in keeping with propriety and the safety and well being of all students.
The librarian is seeking assistance in the form of one or two students with good records over the age of twenty one. Please report to the library if you are interested.
