College Wear Wednesday is Back!
What is College Wear Wednesday, you ask?
Every Wednesday staff and students wear their favorite College Gear.
Example: t-shirt, sweatshirt, shorts lanyard, hat
Share with your students where you went to college, what your path was and don't forget to wear your gear!!!!
Bus Pass Application
Parents must read the Transportation Safety Plan and fill out the ZPASS Bus Application. Parents or guardians will sign and date the bus pass application acknowledging they have read the Transportation Safety Plan and School Bus Safety Tips. Students must qualify for school bus transportation. The ZPASS system allows parents to know the location and time their students get on and off the bus.

After School Registration is now Open
The afterschool program is a structured initiative designed to provide students with a safe, supportive environment beyond regular school hours. It offers a variety of activities, including homework assistance, enrichment classes, and recreational opportunities. Aimed at fostering academic growth, personal development, and social skills, the program helps bridge the gap between school and home, ensuring students have access to productive and engaging experiences after the bell rings.
