From the desk of Mr. Lewis

Wolverine Family,


Today was the final day of the 3rd nine weeks. Report cards will be available (via Harmony) on Friday, March 17.


We want to thank Mrs. Dixon and her entire Dance Marathon team for their philanthropic efforts this year. Their culminating event will be this evening here at the HS. All HS students are encouraged to attend for a $10 dollar donation. Pictures of the event will be in next weeks issue!


Good luck to the dance team as they travel to Lafayette Jeff HS to compete in the state dance finals.

Student Handbook Reminder

Just a reminder to all students (and their families) about a few handbook concerns we are seeing at the high school. Just a reminder that all water bottles being used during the school day must be clear. Also, students are not allowed to carry a backpack from class to class. All backpacks should be stored in the students locker. It is both a safety and space issue.


Finally, as we approach warmer weather, just reminder that all shorts must meet the requirements outlined in the handbook and listed below. Also, no low cut sleeves shirts and no hats in the building. Thanks again in advance for your continued cooperation.


  • Shorts and skirts or dresses must reach the top of the ipad when turned horizontally and held at the top of the knee. No rips or tears above this length will be acceptable.
  • Midriff and/or stomach must not be showing. This includes midriff not showing during the normal course of the day (moving from class to class and getting in and out of locker).
