Welcome to the 2025–2026 school year!
As we begin this year, our focus remains on providing high-quality education, supporting every child, and fostering strong partnerships between schools, families, and the community. Together, we will continue to create safe and engaging learning environments where every student is empowered to thrive.
Throughout the summer, we have been hard at work preparing for the return of our students, from upgrading facilities such as our Middle School entrance to upgrading our High School Science rooms. We have also been enhancing our teaching practices with summer classes and improving safety measures for our school. We are ready to welcome everyone back on August 25th, our first day of school, for another great school year.
