Message from the Principal

What a fantastic way to close out our first month of school! I am so proud of our students — their behavior, enthusiasm, and eagerness to learn have set a wonderful tone for the year. A huge thank you also goes out to our teachers, whose hard work, creativity, and dedication over these first few weeks have made all the difference in getting our students off to a strong start.

It's Beat OC Week!

This week, all of our fall sports teams take on Oldham County, and we can't wait to cheer them on! Here's how our teams did:

* Field Hockey: 7-0 Victory🎉

* Volleyball: 3-0 Victory🎉

* Boys Soccer: 1-0 Victory! 🎉

* Girls Soccer: 1-0 Victory! 🎉

Congratulations to all of our teams for their wins! We’re going for the clean sweep tonight with a football victory!

Football Tonight — Time Change!

Please note a schedule update for tonight's football game against OC at the Teal Field. Kickoff has been moved from 7:30 to 8:00 PM, with gates opening at 7:00 PM.

Last week's crowd was absolutely incredible, and the energy in the stands made a real difference for our players. We're hoping to pack the stands again tonight and give our team that same amazing home-field support. Come out, wear your colors, and help us cheer them on to victory!

Important reminder: All children in 8th grade and under must be accompanied by an adult at the game. We appreciate your help in keeping our stands safe and fun for everyone.

Infinite Campus & EDGE Reminders

As we wrap up our first month, you'll likely start seeing some of the first major assignments and grades posted in Infinite Campus. If you haven't already, please download the Infinite Campus mobile app so you can stay up to date on your student's progress. If you have any questions or concerns about your student's grades, please don't hesitate to reach out directly to their teacher — they're always happy to start a conversation and work together to support your student's success. And for students who may be struggling in a class, remember that EDGE time is available to get extra help; we encourage you to talk with your student about using their EDGE time wisely, as it's a great opportunity to catch up, ask questions, and get ahead before small gaps become bigger ones.

Pumpkin spice is popping back up on menus, college football is officially back on Saturdays, and cooler fall temps can't be far behind. It's the perfect trifecta to get us all through these last blazing days of summer. Hopefully the next update will see some bonfire weather on the horizon!

Thank you all for a great start to the year. Here's to a wonderful September ahead — and to beating OC this week!
