Dear Students and Parents:

At Moses Lake High School we are excited about the new-year filled with accomplishments, growth and learning.  To help you prepare for a great year, we want to pass on some valuable information for you to review.

Registration for the 2008-2009 school year is as follows:

Monday, August 18^th and Tuesday, August 19^th   Students may register ANY TIME between 11:00am - 2:00pm AND 4:00pm - 7:00pm.

There is no set time for students to register.  Any student, in any grade, may register at any time during registration.  Annual and ID pictures will be taken during registration.  ASB/ID cards WILL BE issued that day. Students will need their ID cards on the first day of school for lunch if using their lunch accounts.  **It is very important that ALL students try and come to registration to get their pictures taken for ID cards**.  It will make the start of school easier for students.  Students not at registration will need to pick up a temporary ID card on the first day of school to eat school lunch.  We will be setup in the commons during lunch handing them out.  They will be able to get their permanent card on picture makeup day scheduled for September 3^rd with retakes scheduled for October 8^th.   

          **Students with outstanding fees and/or fines will not be able to pick up their schedule or complete the registration process until all fees or fines have been paid**
