This is an opportunity to get hands-on experience and learn from local cybersecurity experts. No prior experience needed, just a desire to learn. For more info reach out to Chief Nicholls at rlnicholls@ortn.edu or visit the NJROTC classroom, PA139.  R. Nicholls

 

All middle college, senior, and underclassmen yearbooks that have not been retrieved by the end of the school day on Wednesday, May 31, will be stored over the summer and not available for summer pickup. Students may come to CS328 again once school resumes in the fall to pick up any books that have been ordered and not retrieved yet. R. Hale
