Around the Campus!
We can not believe that we have been in school for 100 days! Our Coyotes are 100 days smarter! Check out some of our students and staff who went ALL out to celebrate the 100th day of school.
Our Mother-Son Event was a HUGE success. Thank you to our PTA, Kuentz Student Council and O'Connor HS JROTC & NHS students for helping make this event special. Our momma's and sons had a blast with glow in the dark bowling, dancing and running around with friends. We can't wait for our Father-Daughter Dance coming in February.

"Author Kris Tarantino will be visiting our campus on February 5th! She will be presenting to PREK - 5th grade about her book "Be my Valenslime" that tells the story of a green monster named Snoodle who loves all things Valentine's, despite the fact that monsters shouldn't like those things. Snoodle decides to show her monster friends what love is, but when everything that could go wrong does, will Snoodle be able to take a breath, calm down and show her friends the TRUE meaning of love? Order her book to have it signed the day of her visit!"
