Homecoming week is coming up fast! Fun starts Monday 9/22

Families are invited to the first Coffee with the Principal of the school year! Following morning announcements at 8:10 a.m. this Friday, Sept. 12, Secondary School Principal Rich Larson will be answering parent questions. Bring your questions or concerns and enjoy a cup of coffee with us.

We are excited to welcome our PreK students on Monday, Sept. 8 and to start the year with our Little Raiders!

During the first few days of school, Mrs. Raduenz's art classes took on a unique team-building challenge: creating large-scale origami paper cranes. Working together in small groups, students practiced collaboration, problem-solving, and creativity as they brought these oversized cranes to life.
The final works will be displayed hanging from the ceilings in both the art room and the library, creating a colorful installation for all to enjoy. A great way to start the year with creativity and connection!
