Good Afternoon Stone Parents and Families:
We have reached the final week of school for this historic 2020-2021 school year. This last week we were able to honor and celebrate several students for their improvement, growth, and overall student success, to include our National Junior Honor Society members. Additionally, our Performing Arts program put on an amazing virtual concert, and we hosted our first ever in-person viewing party. Congratulations to our directors, Mrs. Magwire, Mr. Quinlan and Ms. Sgrecci, and student performers for making the most of this unique time and sharing their talents with us.
The celebrations continue this week, so please pay attention to information below as it relates to end-of-year student events, laptop collection, and summer opportunities for all students.
