Due to the rain, the Elementary Kickball Tournament has been moved to tomorrow afternoon, beginning at 1:00 PM, to allow additional time for the softball field to dry out.
If the field conditions are still not suitable, we will switch to a Dodgeball Tournament instead.
We are looking forward to a fun afternoon with our students! Students may bring their money for the concession stand. Items available include:
• Capri Sun – $1.00
• Coke – $1.00
• Dr Pepper – $1.00
• Water – $1.00
• Ring Pop – $0.50
• Blow Pop – $0.50

Secondary Weekly-This week is Teacher Appreciation Week. Big Thanks to Mrs. Butler for organizing the event, and to the parents and businesses that contributed.

Easter Weekend Holiday Schedule
Thursday, April 2 - Early Release @ 12:30pm
Friday, April 3 - No School - Student and Staff Holiday
Monday, April 6 - No School for Students - Staff Workday
Since we are managing a modified schedule and a holiday break, I’ve broken down the key reminders into a quick checklist to help everyone stay on track:
🏁 Final Week Checklist: 5th Six-Weeks
Grade Check: Log in to the portal today. Look for any "M" (missing) or "0" grades that can still be salvaged.
Priority One: Treat academics as the "anchor" for all other activities. If the work isn't in, the fun stuff usually feels a lot more stressful.
Thursday's Schedule: Since it’s a modified run to see all teachers, have your questions ready before you walk into class. You’ll likely have less time than usual with each instructor.
The Reward: Friday is a total "off" day for both staff and students—well-deserved rest is just around the corner!
