Principal's Message

Dear Parents and Guardians,

In light of the recent events at Apalachee High School, I want to reassure you that the safety and well-being of our students is our utmost priority. We are closely reviewing our safety protocols and enhancing our measures to ensure a secure environment for all children.

We encourage you to talk with your children about their feelings and reassure them that they are safe at school. Our staff is prepared to support students who may have questions or concerns.

Thank you for your continued trust and partnership. Together, we can foster a safe and nurturing atmosphere for our children.

Warm regards,

Will Zwingmann, Ed.S.

Principal
