Good afternoon, Eagles,
As we wrap up another productive week, I want to take a moment to celebrate the many successes happening across our campus.
Thursday evening’s JROTC Ball was a standout event. It was a pleasure to see our cadets honoring military traditions with such poise. A sincere thank you to Colonel Rosenberry and Sergeant Lee for their tireless commitment to making this evening a success for our students.
Our spring sports are in full swing! Congratulations to our soccer, baseball, and softball teams for their determination and teamwork this week. On the academic front, we’ve had a strong start to the fourth quarter. It is encouraging to see students and staff maintaining their focus as we begin preparations for end-of-course assessments.
Don’t miss our spring play! Our theater students have poured incredible effort into this production. Thank you to Mr. Walker for his leadership. Please come out to support these talented performers!
