Recurring Announcements
- After four long years of educational excellence and personal growth, all graduates deserve a trophy to celebrate their achievements. This year, we have the opportunity to make their senior year truly memorable. One way we can accomplish this is by making sure every senior leaves with a lasting memento - a yearbook. A yearbook isn’t just a collection of photos and quotes, it's a record of memories that will be treasured for years to come. Unfortunately, not every student will be able to afford one. This is where we need your help. When purchasing a yearbook this year for your student, select one of the “Yearbook Supplements” (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum) to donate to a fund that will go towards providing yearbooks to Eagles in need. Imagine the joy on each senior’s face when they flip through their book, reading about their friends, their achievements, and memories they forgot. We don’t want anyone to miss out on this irreplaceable experience. By contributing to this fund, you’re fostering a sense of unity in our community and ensuring everyone remembers high school, not just the students who can afford it. Let’s come together to make sure we meet our goal because everyone deserves to remember high school. Please consider donating today, and thank you for your generosity and support.
-
One of our initiatives this school year is to increase our overall school attendance rate. We can only do this if our students are in school all day. Parents, we need your help to make sure that your child is getting to school before the 7:25 am late bell and staying at school throughout the day. Being at school and in class is the best way for your child to experience academic success. Next week, those students who have accumulated more than 6 absences since the first day of school will receive a letter in the mail. Please reach out to your child’s counselor or administrator to discuss this. Our goal is to prepare your child for life after high school. Being in attendance and on time for all classes is a piece of this preparation for a successful future. Please talk with your child this week about being at school and on time for all classes.

Students parking in the Junior Lot have reached out to me and ask that I make a plea to parents/families who are dropping students off in that parking lot. This is a reminder that drop offs should only be happening in the carpool line off Clarendon Crescent. Please help us by being good role models for our students and helping to keep their parking area safe. We have limited staff available to assist with traffic supervision and require your cooperation on this.

The Business Alliance is comprised of Entrepreneurs, Business leaders, Community leaders, and Volunteers.
