What do we do for our students?
Weβre proud to support our students in many ways! Right now, we help with freshman orientation, senior activities, and fun incentives like gift cards for Most Improved Attendance, Academic Excellence, (and more). We endeavor to create a sense of community and belonging with celebrations like Hot Cocoa Day and Valentine Carnations Day. We offer extra social opportunities through spirit nights at local venues. With continued family support, we hope to once again help to provide for resources and additional student needs, just as we did before the pandemic.
