Dear Families,


It is hard to believe we are already halfway through November, with only 4 ½ weeks remaining until the end of the semester. As we approach this busy time, we encourage you to support your student(s) by helping them stay on top of their assignments and finish the semester strong.


Junior high winter sports are in full swing, and high school winter sports will kick off soon. Academic eligibility is crucial for participation, and we are committed to supporting our students so they can excel both in the classroom and in their extracurricular activities.


Next week is American Education Week, and we want to take a moment to thank the dedicated educators in our building and throughout the district. Their hard work and commitment play a vital role in helping our students succeed, and we appreciate all they do.


Thank you for your continued support, and let’s make the rest of the semester a great one!


Thank you,

Dr. Samuels - Principal

Mr. Beckham - Assistant Principal
