Assuring learning excellence and readiness for a changing world.
So Many Exciting Things Happening!
It is a great time to be a Scarlet! We have had a fantastic start to this school year, with our Senior Class providing strong, positive leadership. Homecoming was amazing, from the Hall of Fame banquet to Coronation; it was an incredible celebration of our Scarlet community!
Thank you to all of our families who were able to join us for conferences. "It takes a village to raise a child" and that continues on through the teenage years. We welcome opportunities to partner with families to ensure our students are being challenged, supported, and developing the knowledge and skills they will need in the adult world.
