News from the Pirate Ship

Dear Pirate Families,

As we close out our third week of school, let me say thank you for all you have done to support us in making these first few weeks as smooth as possible. We will continue to emphasize being on time, being in class, and being accountable for following safety processes. Being safe includes only entering the building through one of our three entrances where everyone comes through our screening protocols. Visitors are also required to show ID before coming through detection systems.

This week's "News from the Pirate Ship" is full of great information, including an exciting announcement about our upcoming college nights.

Don't forget that student announcements, "The Daily Pirate Post" are also shared daily on our website and social media, Bookmark this site for easy access. https://bit.ly/4g7DfFD.

Enjoy your weekend, and we will see you on Monday, Pirates!
