WHOLE-CAMPUS ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Thank you to everyone who supported Prom. We truly appreciate the time, energy, and resources you gave to make the night special for our students. Events like this only come together because of a strong team committed to creating meaningful experiences, and that was clear throughout the entire evening.
Thank you as well to all of the teachers who helped set up, the students who volunteered their time to bring everything together, and the caregivers who were able to chaperone or donate in support of the event. Your collective effort behind the scenes made a real difference.
A special shoutout to Dr. Rozell for her leadership in planning and executing such an incredible event!
Thank you,
Dr. Gill

EOC Testing Schedule
State End-of-Course (EOC) testing for 9th–11th grade will take place from Monday, April 20, through April 30.
On testing days, students will report to class after completing exams and will have a full day of school (see bell schedule here) —this is different from previous years.
It is critical that all students arrive by 7:30 AM each day so testing can begin on time.
Preparation Reminder:
Please ensure your student’s Chromebook is fully charged each day, as all EOC exams will be completed online.
Our goal is 100% attendance so that all students can complete their exams during the scheduled window. Being present and on time is essential for student success.
Additional Notes:
Friday, May 1st, is a regular school day for 9-11th grade.
12th grade will follow a regular schedule during the week of April 20. During the week of April 27, seniors will transition to their Senior Week schedule and events.
