WHOLE-CAMPUS ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Semester One is officially in the books. We sincerely appreciate all of the support you have provided throughout the semester and thank you for your continued partnership in making it an amazing experience for our students.

Together, we celebrated a state championship, incredible Broadway-level performances, homecoming dances, senior sunrises, community festivals, FAFSA workshops, college visits, and so much more. These moments reflect the Wildcat Way! Thank you for everything you did to help make these celebrations possible.

As we look ahead to Semester Two, we are excited to continue building on this momentum and celebrating even more student achievements and successes together. We are grateful for the trust you place in our school and for the role you play in supporting your students’ growth, joy, and success.

Thank you all for everything you do!

Dr. Gill
