Happy New Year! January 12, 2024

As parents, please know that this is a long thorough process and we welcome your input and cooperation throughout the process.

Automated Eligibility Notifcations

As some of you are aware- we sent out a new automated eligibility notification this afternoon. This was intended to only go out to students currently involved in a sport, club or extracurricular activity.


It seems it went to all students currently failing one or more classes this quarter. Students only need to see their Assistant Principal if they are on presently on a team, club or involved in a school activity. For others, this notification is just another layer of communication around a student's academic standing as we approach the end of the semester. .
