We have water bottle fill stations located all around the building and students are encouraged to bring their own water bottle as traditional water fountains are not available. Plastic water bottles will not be given out in the main office this school year.

The first PTO meeting of the school year is on September 15th, on google meet, at 6:30pm. The PTO is an important part of our school community and they do a lot for the student body!
