Good Evening Bulldog Families–
I hope that you and your family were able to enjoy a fantastic weekend!
We had some great things this past week. To start, our Choir performed at the School Board meeting this weekend. We had 3 sports programs with big wins: Baseball, Softball, and Girls Lacrosse. Still in the mix for district play this week is Track, Baseball, Softball, and both Girls and Boys Soccer. There is a lot of postseason left in our athletics department!
Lastly, we are seeing some events that symbolically mark the final push of the year. First, this past Friday was our Senior Prom. The event went fantastically and it appeared that students (and staff) had a great time! This week we also begin our WeStep program as seniors spend their final days getting experience in the community either through internships or job opportunities. It really is an exciting time of the year!
As always, please feel free to reach out to me with observations, suggestions, questions and celebrations. You can do that through e-mail, call, or through the form located here: https://forms.gle/4eW9rgPRVBF2a5gd8.
Go Bulldogs!
