Students and parents are increasing usage of food delivery services during the school day. As exciting as that be for the student, the many occurrences have created a safety concern, as well as, added to the already high volume of activity in the main office.
Effective immediately, we are no longer accepting deliveries from third party food delivery companies.
Thank you in advance for understanding this change and for supporting it as well.

Vocal Ensemble participated in the Florida Vocal Association District 4 Choral Music Performance Assessment recently. Vocal Ensemble earned another Superior rating, followed by the Women’s Chorus who earned straight Superiors with a Superior with Distinction for Sight Reading. The smaller chamber choir (put together in memory of a classmate who passed away 2 years ago) earned an Excellent but also received a Superior with Distinction in sight reading. The Vocal Ensemble and Women’s Chorus have earned the opportunity to go to state MPA once again!

Please join me in congratulating the following students for their outstanding performances at the World Languages Festival! Teams from both the ASL and Spanish Department spent the day performing impromptus, poems, and dance and instrumental pieces in their target languages!

Telling your student to go to the clinic when they call to tell you they are sick
will EXPEDITE checkout.
Please do not ask us to interrupt class to call your student out. Asking your student to go to the clinic until you arrive is best for everyone. THANK YOU.
Now,
"YOU ARE IN THE KNOW".
