A Message from Principal Anita O'Neill
December 1, 2024
Dear Coyote Community,
I hope everyone had a chance to relax and recharge over the Thanksgiving break, enjoying time with family, friends, and activities that bring you joy—or perhaps simply savoring a moment of rest. As we all know, the holiday season can be a whirlwind, both at school and at home, so let’s remember to prioritize self-care during this busy time.
It’s hard to believe we’re already heading into the final stretch before winter break! With just three weeks remaining, I encourage all students to make the most of these 15 school days. Let’s focus on strong attendance, completing assignments, and demonstrating our best learning efforts. When we return in January, the end of the semester will be just around the corner, making it essential for everyone to finish strong—earning all their credits and achieving the best grades possible. Remember, we’re here to help! Be sure to take advantage of the many support opportunities available, especially during lunch.
Welcome back, and let’s make it a great week!
Warmly,
Ms. O’Neill
