Good Afternoon Caregivers and Students:
As we enter Memorial Day Weekend, we would like to honor those lives lost so that we may be free. Their service to our country must never be forgotten 🇺🇸.
It was exciting to see the seniors enjoy their last day today. We are in the home stretch with just over three weeks to go. Hang in there…the finish line is in sight.
Safety
We are all aware of the difficult and hard events of this week in Texas. We strongly recommend you review our safety plan on a regular basis and follow our safety policies. It is essential that we all work together to keep our school safe and be vigilant in observing behaviors that do not follow these policies. Please report concerns to the main office immediately. Thank you for your cooperation.
