High School Yearbooks are now on SALE! Swing by the High School office window and see Dena or feel free to put your cash or check in a separate envelope and include it in your homework packet. Just be sure to write my name on the outside and include the name of who the yearbook is for on the inside. Thanks and GOOOOOO TIGERS!

Hello Seniors and families, I know this is a challenging and frustrating time for you. We want you to know we support you, and we are moving forward with graduation. We had another graduation planning meeting today, I consulted with to the department of health, the Emergency Management office and other county entities. We will be presenting our proposed plan to the school board next Wednesday for their review, and I hope to hear any comments or recommendations from the health department by tomorrow. By next Thursday, we should have the plan ready to share with you all. Thank you again for your patience. We know this is hard to wait, and it has been challenging for all of us. Also, please know we are doing the best we can to have the best graduation for our students within the guidelines we are required to follow. Please call or email me next week if you have any concerns or questions. I'm happy to work with each of you. Happy Memorial Day Principal G 😁

Beginning next week we will be sending homework home to every student on a weekly basis (and collecting it weekly). The final logistics are still being worked out, but there will be multiple delivery options (meal routes, pick up, delivery by school personnel). Thank you for your patience as we work through this. I'm sure there will be many questions. We will be sending a letter to every parent/guardian towards the end of the week with specific information.

Spring Break is April 6 - April 10, 2020. School offices will be closed and no food services will be offered during this time. Stay safe and enjoy these sunny days!
