Welcome Class of 2028!
On Thursday, May 23, Corbett High School welcomed the class of 2028 for Fly Up Day. The eighth graders spent all day in the high school and attended each of the their classes for next year to meet their teachers and see who is in their classes. During homeroom, they had an assembly with current Corbett students to learn more about being successful in high school. Welcome, Class of 2028!
Let's Get Cookin'!
Culinary Arts program needs equipment
This past school year, our fledgling culinary class has needed to borrow supplies from the campus kitchen. This situation has limited both our ability to function smoothly and what we are able to teach and experience properly. With more supplies and kitchen equipment, we can provide a more stable and professional cooking environment for our eager young chefs in training.
In addition to having our own refrigerator, having multiple types of certain supplies and equipment will allow us the needed opportunity to more efficiently work in teams. With this Vitamix, Cuisinart, Instant Pot, and more, we will be able to further the successful culinary education these students deserve.
2024 HS Football Players and Parents
Do you have an interest in playing football this fall, helping the team develop, or maybe you are just curious about the team and its development for next year? If so, please join us for a meeting with athletes and parents on June 3rd. We are having a meeting about the summer practices, weightlifting, team camp, and the upcoming fall season on Monday, June 3rd at 6 pm in the MPB. We will be available to answer any questions about preparing our football players for a successful fall season.
Please attend with your athletes if possible. We will be completing the required paperwork for team camp at this time.
