Principal's Corner

Welcome back to a new school year!  We hope that everyone had a restful and relaxed summer.  Last year presented many challenges to our school community.  Student resiliency, staff adaptability, and community support helped deal with various obstacles that were faced.  Our goal is to create a positive, supportive, enriching learning environment for our students.  We are looking forward to a productive partnership with parents to ensure our students can achieve their highest potential.  Creating engaging lessons to challenge our students to reach this potential will be our primary focus moving forward. 

Students in grades 7-9 will begin classes on Friday August 19th. Students in grades 10-12 will begin classes on Monday August 22nd.   Doors open at 8 am with instruction beginning at 8:15 and students will be dismissed at 3:00. Parking permits are required for students to park on campus. The cost is $40. Please see Mrs. Rudy for information on parking permits. If students are leaving school early to obtain a driver’s permit/license, please note that these absences will no longer be excused prior to 3 p.m. Handbooks will be distributed to each student at the beginning of school. Please carefully read the student handbook for other important information.

We recognize that in order to be successful in school, our students need support from both the home and school.  A strong partnership between parents and the school makes a huge difference in a student’s education.  Communication and transparency is a huge facet in continuing to build relationships with all stakeholders.  Please contact teachers or the school anytime that you have questions/concerns/suggestions.  We are all in this together with the overarching goal to make our students reach their highest potential. 

 

Sincerely,

Derick Parks
