Deciding whether your child should stay home can sometimes be tricky!
Check out our attached decision matrix to help guide your morning routine:
Physical Illness: Stay home for fevers (100.4°+), vomiting in the last 24 hours, watery stool, or contagious illnesses. Otherwise, come to school!
School Worries or Stress: If your child is anxious about classwork, online issues, or something that happened at school, coming to school is still the best step. We have trusted adults, teachers, and counselors ready to help them the moment they arrive.
Thank you for working with us to keep our students healthy, supported, and learning every day!

Dear Parents and Guardians,
In a few minutes, our school will be conducting an ALICE safety drill in partnership with local law enforcement and 911 dispatch.
Please note the following key details for this morning's exercise:
Increased Police Presence: You may notice emergency vehicles and officers responding to the campus in real time as part of the simulation. Please do not be alarmed.
Extended Duration: Because law enforcement will be responding and clearing the building, this drill will take longer than standard procedures.
Full Simulation: Students and staff will practice scenario-specific protocols (securing or evacuating to designated rally points), followed by a group debrief with Deputy Greene in the gym once the building is cleared.
We appreciate your support as we practice these essential procedures to keep our campus safe.

🔥 Frozen water or hot cocoa? Mr. Brown’s 4th Hour Science Class took on the ultimate engineering challenge in OpenSciEd Unit 6.2! 🥤❄️
Our 6th graders became thermal energy engineers, applying what they learned about heat flow, particle kinetic energy, conductors, and insulators. Using their knowledge of how energy transfers through conduction, convection, and radiation, students designed, built, and tested custom insulated cups to minimize thermal energy loss.
Check out their incredible prototypes! Which design do you think kept liquid cold the longest?
