Year End Success and Celebration!
We have celebrated so much this week! Our 8th grade students had their farewell party, we had several track runners place at the regional meet, our soccer team concluded a successful season, our instrumental students put on a fantastic performance, we celebrated staff, students and families at the district Breakfast of Champions, and exceptional learning is still happening as the 22/23 school year winds down.
All track athletes that placed in the top 6 of their event earn a medal at the regional meet!
