Greetings Clipper Nation!
It is with great pleasure I welcome you to the official start of the school year. I am excited to get back on the ship, leave the dock, and cruise through 2022-2023.

How to Stay in the Know?
The best way to stay in the know is to make sure we have accurate information on file. Please look over all the information on the Student Personal Data and Enrollment Information Form as this is the information we currently have on file for you. Make any corrections to the form in blue. If you need additional space for emergency contact use a separate sheet of paper. Sign the back of the form and return it to the school. If you prefer to fill out a new form you can find a copy on our website.
