Everyone was shining bright during our Dance-A-Thon, and we couldn’t be more proud. A huge thank-you to everyone who supported our Roughriders—our inflatable staff race was definitely worth it!

If you can’t beat them, join them! On the 67th day of school, teachers surprised students by wearing “67” shirts, joining in on a trend that students have been embracing all year. The fun didn’t stop with the outfits. Many teachers also incorporated the number 67 into their classroom lessons and activities, creating an extra layer of excitement and making the day both memorable and meaningful for students.

Ms. Grunfeld added, "Here is Senior Gianna Scola and Junior Faith Martinez in rehearsal for our Winter Concert next Friday the 19th with the Christmas classic, "Oh Holy Night". We hope you join us at the concert and we hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season!"
