Congratulations to our middle students who earned honor roll and/or perfect attendance for the fourth nine weeks!
“Being a hero doesn’t mean you’re invincible. It just means that you’re brave enough to stand up and do what’s needed.” -"Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief”
The sixth grade ELA students just finished “Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief." A big feature in the novel was the game, Capture the Flag. The sixth grade ELA teachers hosted their own version of Capture the Flag, which taught collaboration, game strategy and fun! What an amazing way to end the school year.!
Congratulations to Silas Soards on achieving a perfect score on his sixth grade math state assessment! This is an outstanding accomplishment!
Congratulations to Jax Vanzant on earning a perfect score on his algebra state test this year! This is an amazing accomplishment!
Seventh grade students have been studying the process of electing a new pope in Ms. Cokonougher's social studies classes. Students voted and chose the new pope on the first vote. Students then got to see the white smoke from the burning of the ballots. We followed the process that is currently used to elect the real-life pope (safety precautions were followed).
Congratulations to Lillian Todd and Ari Garcia for completing their 6th grade Aleks Pie!
Check out the details regarding this opportunity for free sports physicals. Happening tomorrow! 😀

Students researched 66 famous mathematicians in Mrs. Smith's eighth grade math classes. The students researched, made Google slide shows, and presented their newfound knowledge to their classmates. Students brought their ELA skills into the math class!
Students in Ms. Lagorio's class had a fantastic Friday!
In Mrs. Black’s classes, students explored women’s rights by reading an excerpt from Sojourner Truth. They then researched another influential woman in history using credible sources and created an infographic and Google Slides presentation to showcase her impact. Students shared their work with classmates, building knowledge, creativity, and appreciation for the women who helped shape history.
FinalForms is open TODAY for the 2025-2026 school year!
Please read the graphics carefully as there is different information for RETURNING students and NEW students.

School attendance matters! Strategies that we implement to improve student attendance are utilized not just because we know good attendance positively impacts student achievement, but also because addressing excessive absences and habitual truancy IS THE LAW!
Avoid the spring slump! Below are some helpful tips for parents FROM parents:
1. Talk about the importance of school in your home.
2. Be organized. Get everything ready the night before.
3. Give yourself 15 minutes of quiet time before the kids wake up.
4. Implement structure - Run it like a military operation in the morning!
5. Don’t give kids a choice to stay home.
6. Come back to school after medical appointments.
7. Know how many days your child has missed.
Students who are close to being identified as chronically absent, defined by the Department of Education and Workforce as missing 10% or more of the school year, can avoid that designation by finishing out the school year with great attendance. Working hard to maintain good attendance at the end of the school year benefits students and our district. Avoid the spring slump!
