"We Engage, Challenge, and Support Every Student, Every Day"

Principal's Message Jan. 19, 2018

I want to focus this week on the importance of athletics and club participation. It has been a goal of mine to have every student on campus involved in something extra-curricular. Having a coach or sponsor that works with students can be an effective intervention when students struggle and/or need additional help academically. For students who excel in the classroom, athletics and clubs can provide leadership opportunities. We have expanded both our club offerings, as well as our athletic opportunities. Please talk with your student(s) about trying something new and expanding their horizons. As a school we have a much better opportunity to win championships when student-athletes play multiple sports and bring their talents to a variety of teams. Club membership looks great on college applications as well as on a resume. Please visit our website and click on "Student Life" to learn more.
