Good Afternoon Caregivers and Students:

It is hard to believe that we are writing the final memo of the year.  We have just a few updates this week.  Our sophomores will finish out the remainder of the school year in their CTE programs, while freshmen and juniors will be in academics.  Grades close on Wednesday, June 15th, and we encourage all students to complete their final assignments and finish strong. 

 

We wish all of our students, staff, and families a restful summer!

Summer Integration Academy for Entering Grade 9 Students

We are excited to offer to our incoming or entering grade 9 students an opportunity to participate in our 3rd-Annual Summer Integration Academy.  The Summer Integration Academy is offered to select students to support their reading/writing and mathematics skills through a highly-engaging and fun integration learning project where students work on teams to build something that combines in some creative way agricultural, technical, and academic learning.  There are two “Camp Sessions”for the Summer Integration Academy.  Camp Session #1 runs two weeks, Mondays through Thursdays from 8:00 am to 2:00 pm, July 11-14 and July 18-21Camp Session #2 runs the following two weeks, same time, from July 25-28 and August 1-4.  Every Thursday, the Camp Session day is slightly shorter with hours from 8:00 am to 12:30 pm.  Entering students may participate in BOTH camps should we have openings available.  To apply, please complete the following application FORM, and we will notify students’ families as to whether they are accepted or not into the Academy by June 17th.  Thank you for your interest in getting on to our campus early and learning differently.

Educational Vital Signs (EVS) Survey

The EVS Survey is complete, and we will be reviewing the data. We hope to have a community meeting during the summer to present the findings. Our Culture Action Team (CAT) will be working with Culture7 to interpret the data and plan for next steps. Thank you to all those who completed this survey.

 

5-Year Strategic Plan

The 5-Year Strategic Planning Committee met monthly for six half-days since January 2022 to dive into the stakeholder data as we move into our second strategic plan in our school district’s history. The committee consisted of students, parents/caregivers, faculty, and staff to gain understanding of the various viewpoints and add important stakeholder feedback to the process. The final plan will be presented to our learning community in the fall after full approval by the District Committee.
