Attention Parents of current 6-11 students:
Recently a survey was sent out trying to determine which students, (grades 7 - 12 for the 2023-24 school year), are interested in participating in ANY sport during the entire academic year. This survey will hopefully help us better anticipate our coaching needs. It is extremely brief and it would be greatly appreciated if you could click on this quick link and complete it. It should take you less than 3 minutes, start to finish. Please click on the following link to complete the survey:

We have also opened up our portal for Fall sports sign ups. If your child plans on playing a fall sport they are required to register. Please click on the following link to register your student for a Fall sport:

Attention Middle School parents:
We will be conducting our math state testing on Wednesday May 3rd and Thursday May 4th this year. It is always helpful if your child can get a good nights sleep before these exams. Please remember these exams are not timed, nor do they count for or against your child's average. These exams are merely a tool to assess where our students, as a whole, compare to their cohorts across the state. If you are refusing to have your child take this exam, a refusal letter, signed by the parent, must be brought to the Middle School main office no later than 10am on Friday April 28th. Due to the work to properly prepare for these exams, refusal letters after this date or those sent by email or phoned in, will not be honored. Please remember, a refusal letter for ELA does not cover Math or Science. A separate letter will be needed for each exam.
Thanks for your understanding and cooperation in this matter and have a great vacation.
