NOTE: This dress code provides guidance regarding common situations but cannot cover every style of dress and specific situations that may arise. The district reserves the right to prohibit any clothing or grooming style that the administration determines to cause disruption of, distraction from, or interference with general school operations. In addition to disciplinary consequences, students may have to contact a parent to bring appropriate clothing to school if a student is out of the dress code. Repeated or severe offenses may result in more serious disciplinary action in accordance with the Student Code of Conduct. In addition, certain courses and extracurricular programs may have additional requirements or guidelines for students participating in those programs.

Our campus pantries can use support all year long. We now have five pantry locations across the district, including two at KKE and Griffis, placed where they’re easy for students to access, especially those who walk. A dedicated volunteer helps store and restock donations regularly, helping ensure students and families have what they need.

Items we need most include canned potatoes, pork and beans, tuna, Vienna sausage, Ranch Style beans, pasta sauce (no noodles needed), chili mac, mac and cheese cups, and any kind of soup. Ramen noodles are always a great option and go quickly. We are currently stocked up on green beans, corn, peaches, pears, and pasta, so you can skip those for now—but we are grateful for any donation. Feel free to drop donations in the front office.

Looking for a meaningful way to make a difference while enjoying a flexible schedule? We're always looking for caring, dependable substitute teachers to support our students and staff. Whether you're available a few days a month or several days a week, we'd love to have you on our team. If you're interested in becoming a substitute teacher, contact the district office or click below to learn more and start the application process.

Just a reminder: dentist appointments will only be excused with a doctor's note for half a day.
