High School Weekly Update

Prom Weekend is Here!

We are so excited for our Junior/Senior Prom taking place tomorrow evening from 8:00 - 11:00 p.m. at Sixty Acres, A Gathering Place! This special event is a milestone in our students’ high school experience, and we hope it will be a night full of joy, laughter, and lasting memories. A huge thank you goes out to our Leadership students who have worked incredibly hard to plan and prepare for this year's prom—we can't wait to see what you’ve created! We are also grateful to our School Nurse, Health Club, and all those involved in this week’s Prom Promise event for helping remind students of the importance of making good decisions.

As we head into the evening, we want to remind students that prom is a formal event—appropriate attire is expected, and all students must arrive by 9:00 p.m. For those bringing outside guests, please be sure they bring valid identification. No outside food or drinks will be permitted. Most importantly, please remember that the use of alcohol or drugs is strictly prohibited. Our number one priority is your safety—we want every student to return home safely with nothing but great memories of this special night.

Let’s make it a night to remember for all the right reasons!

Next Thursday is an Early Release Day. Middle School dismissal will occur at 11:40, and the High School schedule for that day is posted below.

School will be closed from Friday, April 18 through Friday, April 25 for Spring Break. We will resume classes on Monday, April 28. We hope everyone has a wonderful, safe break!

The Student Advisory Council hosted a 3-on-3 March Madness basketball tournament after the Spring Sports Pep Rally on Friday, March 28. Congratulations to the winning team (pictured left to right below): Carter Evans, Colt Greer, Elijah Sheffield, and Gabe Young.

Last week, the juniors and seniors participated in their respective class trips. The seniors visited Charleston, South Carolina, and the juniors went to Washington, D.C.

This week's Knight of the Week is Nora Hatley. One of Nora's teachers wrote, "Nora does a terrific job working with her lab groups. She has a very positive attitude and enjoys helping her classmates."

We are proud of you, Nora!
