There is no school Monday, May 26th in observance of Memorial Day and the last day of school is Friday, May 30th. We will be on a modified schedule with dismissal at 1:15pm.

The awards ceremony for 6th grade will be Tuesday, May 27th at 10am and 7th grade will be Wednesday, May 28th at 10am. Both ceremonies by invitation only will be held in the auditorium. Students are allowed to bring two guests for capacity reasons. We are asking for students to dress nicely for their awards ceremonies, no jeans or T-shirts. Also, students will receive their 2025-2026 Course Elective Option form via email (OneView) this week. Students have until June 20th to have this form completed. We will continue to do our best to schedule students with their first choice, but core is our primary focus.
