TSA, or Technology Student Association, is a nationally recognized organization where students in middle school and high school compete in events that prepare them for careers in the future. This program is led and driven by the students. Our students were able to compete at the state level and placed in the following events; fashion design, prepared speech, leadership strategies, problem solving, and biotech.

Check out the event at: https://tsaweb.org/events.../2024-national-tsa-conference

Join us in supporting these students!

A quick reminder that if a student is tardy to school in the morning, he/she must report to the office and print off a tardy pass. School starts at 7:50 and any student arriving after that is considered tardy. Tardiness due to dental/doctor appointments with a parent note/call or late buses will be excused.

Unexcused tardies will result in the following consequences:

• At 5th tardy – Lunch held in the Student Success Center to review expectations.

• At 8th tardy –Two lunches held in the Student Success Center to review expectations.

• At 11th tardy – Four lunches held in the Student Success Center to review expectations and a parent meeting scheduled.

• At 14th tardy --Alternative passing schedule put in place to help facilitate arriving to class on time. This will be in place for the remainder of the quarter.
