Meetings are Thursdays after school from 2:45-4:30 at the high school in room 544. Students can take the activity bus home. Each week there will be an activity or project focused on the past, present and future of Native American history, culture and current events. If you have any questions please contact us.

Semester 2 parking permit applications will be available to apply on FeePay (on a parent's SchoolView account). Because of our limited spaces please apply early.

January 6th is the deadline for getting your ad into the yearbook by emailing pictures and a message to yearbook@flaschools.org . Please remember to place your order for your yearbook, if you have not already done so, by clicking here.

School calendar change coming 2017

A calendar shift has been approved by the school board for the 2017-2018 school year. In 2017, the first day of school will be August 21st and the last day of school in the spring of 2018 will be May 23rd, two weeks earlier than usual. This one-year calendar adjustment will allow extra time in the summer to complete construction projects at many of the district's buildings without disrupting student learning.

The school year calendar returns to normal in 2018-2019, with the first day of school scheduled after labor day and the last day scheduled for early June.

The approved district calendar for 2017-2018 can be found here and 2018-2019 calendar can be found here on the district website.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to upgrade learning spaces around the district.
