Welcome back! I hope you enjoyed your summer and were able to spend time with your family and friends. I am looking forward to seeing everyone for another great year!

The start of the school year is a good time to reflect and consider what we hope to accomplish. At the high school this year, we will continue working to make sure that all students feel welcome and have what they need to be successful. As a staff, we will maintain and build connections with our students, as well as uphold high standards for every student. Additionally, we will continue to provide opportunities for students to learn and grow their interests. I encourage every student to consider how they can become more involved this year. We have many great extracurricular opportunities. Athletics, clubs and school programs are great ways to become even more involved in our community. I am happy to announce that we will again offer the Rams Can Soar program before and after school, as well as time for students to use the fitness center.

We will continue traditions that we enjoyed last year, such as the Thanksgiving Breakfast, Snowball, Post-Graduation Plan Celebration, High School Olympics, Academic Awards Celebration, as well as creating new ones this year. There will be much to celebrate!

I hope to see you at our Back-to-School Night on September 1 from 7:00-8:00 p.m. This is a wonderful opportunity to meet the teachers and high school staff, see the building and try out your locker.

I look forward to partnering with families to help students reach their full potential. Please contact me with any questions and remember that we are here to support you. The new school year is a blank canvas waiting to be filled with dreams and aspirations. I look forward to seeing our students Soar to Success!
