Principal's Message

November 2024

"As the autumn season unfolds, we find ourselves entering a time of reflection and gratitude. November offers us a unique opportunity to pause, appreciate the progress we've made, and celebrate the connections that enrich our school community. I would like to share a few updates on what’s happening in our school. This month, our students are actively participating in a range of learning experiences, both in and out of the classroom. From classroom projects to extracurricular activities, their hard work and commitment are evident across the board.  Progress Report grades will be posted on Infinite Campus during the week of November 18th. 

Winter sports are officially underway! Our athletes are gearing up for basketball, wrestling, and soccer seasons, with competitions starting later this month. We encourage you to attend and support our teams as they begin their season.

We’re also excited to present our fall play, Much Ado About Nothing. This Shakespearean comedy will be performed by our talented drama students on November 21 – 23. We hope you’ll join us to enjoy this classic production and celebrate our students' hard work.

Additionally, please mark your calendars for our Site Council and Curriculum Committee meetings for this month, where we’ll discuss current initiatives and upcoming plans for the school. These meetings are scheduled for Thursday, November 7th (Site Council) and Thursday, November 21st (Curriculum Committee).  Each meeting will be held in the Learning Center Conference Room and will begin at 3:15pm.  All are welcome and we hope to see you there.

 Thank you for your continued support and engagement with our school community."
