A Message from the Principal
We have had a fantastic first week of school. It is vital that everybody plays a part to accomplish the impossible. We have accomplished the impossible during our 1st week of school. Our challenge is staying the course, beating the odds, and sustaining a school that will serve as the model for the district. I want to take this moment to say thank you. This week I have witnessed students highly engaged in their lesson, teachers committed to ensuring students’ safety, and a drive from staff to accept nothing but excellence. Kudos to the absolute best staff in the district!
Special Shout-Outs:
- AM/PM Duty Crew – thank you for ensuring the safety of children in the face of potential danger
