  • Fall Break: Friday, October 17, through Monday, October 20, 2025

  • Classes Resume: Tuesday, October 21, 2025

I can promise you the best of myself for your students each and every day. Please do not hesitate to contact me at shenderson2@sbcsc.k12.in.us if you have any questions or concerns during the year.


Our Goals:

1) Educate the Whole Student

2) Building Meaningful Relationships

3) A 95% attendance rate

4) A 90% graduation rate
