1. Go to the basement where they will take your photo and get you a new ID card. I'm not sure which day, you should ask around.

2. Yes, but I wouldn't suggest disregarding extracurricular activities altogether. It looks bad on college applications.

3. NO. The staff believes that you guys are too inept and immature to handle being in the elevator. Try being a sophomore next time.
Jk, yes of course.

4. The GO store is in the center section of the cafeteria. The gym uniform and lock should be around~ $30. I'm not quite sure.

5. No. As of now, I believe you only go to prefect 3 times a year.

6. That's just filler. It means you don't have a first period class.

They said they'd shut down elevators but they're still running. Okay.

1.I didnt get to submit a photo and I didnt get an id card, what should I do?
You will need to take your photo sometime between this week and next week (as said on the announcements this morning)

2.For the graduation requirements, is it possible to gain the 32 points without doing extracurricular activities such as clubs, band, etc.?
According to my planner from last year, in order to obtain those 32 school credits, you MUST participate in school activities (clubs, teams, school related events)

3.Are freshmen allowed to use the elevators?
Generally anyone can use the elevators but there are some elevators were you need a key to access. also, I read ont he forums somewhere that students may not be able to use the elavators this year.. but correct me if I am wrong.

4. Where is the GO store and how much is the gym uniform with lock?
The SGO store is in the center section of the lunchroom. There is a glass showcase of all the merchant-dice you can buy in front of the SGO store.

5.Do we go to our prefect on regular schooldays?
No, you do not. Prefect meet like ..1 -2 times a year I think

6.Why does my first period class say Z29 and 2-9 SCHED?
that means you have 1st prd free.

hope this help dude (:

Only staff and those with a medical pass approved with a doctor's note and a reasonable excuse can use the elevator. Anyone who let you in on the first means you were lucky like me (although I managed my way in by showing an infirmary pass from last year).

1. If you still have not taken your picture yet, I believe they are taking pictures in the center section of the cafeteria now.
2. The 32 club credits are requirements for the tech diploma (all it is a sticker on your regular diploma), you do not need them for a regular HS diploma. Like said before, don't let go of clubs since it will look bad on your college apps. Find one club at least that you honestly like and enjoy and stick with it until senior year. Also, during club fair in october you can sign up for clubs that interest you and after a few meetings you can decide if you want to commit with it for the rest of the semester/ year.
3. Elevators are running but they are not for student use, freshmen or upperclassmen unless you have a medical excuse or reason in which you can obtain an elevator pass.
4. Go store is in the center section of the cafeteria, you cant miss it, they have a window display of tech merchandise. A white tech shirt, cotton shorts, and a gym lock is $35. you can order them online and pick them up in the school store. Here.
5. Prefect is for the first day of school, and the first day of the second semester or around that time. And during the January break there will be the opportunity to get your student metrocard for the second semester with your fellow freshies so you may be with your prefect. And if you haven't noticed you have DDP with your prefect class.
6. You have a 2-9 schedule, "Z29" is just a filler.
