Bobcat News

We are forever grateful for the outpouring of love and support from the entire community after the tragic loss of our amazing student and friend, Krystal Buck. Friday night's football game proved that despite our crosstown rivalry, we can come together and support one another in times of great need. Thank you to everyone who played a role, no matter how small, wore yellow, wore crocs, or contributed in any way to Krystal's family. That's what #itsbettertobeabobcat is all about.

When AP Research students finalize their research ideas we hold a fun ceremony in their honor. They agree to commit whole-heartedly to the project through thick and thin, good results and bad, and do their best no matter how difficult the ups and downs of source location, conducting experiments, and data validation can be. And of course, there's ring pops and cake!
