Big shoutout to our Little Dribblers for performing at the Varsity Boys' basketball game last night! You all did an amazing job showing off your new skills!

What?: The Partnership for Literacy Committee is having a contest open to all students in grades PreK - 6! Students are encouraged to design a t-shirt using the theme of “Pirate Tales” to inspire their t-shirt design. All interested students must submit their entries by February 18, 2026.
PLEASE NOTE: the theme of the shirt should revolve around PIRATE TALES (stories/books about pirates).

Music Parachute Fun!

Everything is falling into place for a memorable Senior Night! Join us tonight, February 10th, as we celebrate our seniors taking their final shots on the court, performing their final songs with the pep band, and leading their final cheers from the sidelines.  We are also proud to recognize our Bowling and Powerlifting seniors. All seniors and their parents will be honored on the court between the JV and Varsity games. Parents and seniors: please meet in the hallway during the 4th quarter of the JV game.

Thank you to Community Health & Wellness for the generous gift basket of goodies. We are grateful for your continued support of our school and community.

We are excited to share the flyer for our Group Therapy sessions starting in March. These sessions provide students with a safe, supportive space to build coping skills, reduce stress, and connect with peers—all led by a licensed therapist during school hours.

Music this week: parachutes, bubbles, and dancing! Oh My! -We are responding to dynamics we hear in music with the parachute.

The second graders had a blast celebrating the 100th day of school!!
