Themed Nights for Varsity Basketball Games
Again we are excited to extend free admission to students dressed in themed attire for the remaining home region basketball games.
Below are the nights and the themes. Women's games begin at 6:00 PM and Men's follow at 7:30 PM.
Great job vs. Lexington High before break with school spirit and themed attire. The crowd made the difference.
The home student section is directly under the goal near the glass entrance to the gym. We encourage all students to sit there as the visiting team's student section is across the gym to the left.

3:45-4:45 pmSigning Out Procedures
A reminder to parents regarding signing students out during the school day. Someone from the student's sign out sheet must come in and show ID to dismiss a child. We do not accept phone calls or emails for dismissal. You can come in on Monday to sign your child out during the week but only up until Friday of the same week. Also, if you are dismissing your child during ILT, then it is helpful to have made arrangements with the student ahead of time. We appreciate your help to assist in making this process efficient.
Counseling and Advisement Assignments for Students
Counseling and Advisement Team
The Counseling & Advisement team is working towards a more intentionally focused program to provide students with the best support. Rather than counselors having students in all grade levels (9-12), we are realigning to be able to more appropriately serve students’ transitional needs at the different levels. This realignment will also more closely mirror our CREW design allowing students to stay with their school counselor their 9th and 10th grade years and then have another counselor their 11th and 12th grade years.
