I know this is super last minute but we need "baked goods" (cookies, snacks, little Debbie cakes) for our carnival Thursday. If anyone could send anything in, we can package them into small baggies if needed. Thank you!


5/15/23 - This week's 8th Grade Eagle Excellent Attitude Winner is Mason Brines.
Mason is as intelligent as they come. Often, I notice Mason is one of the first students to have the answers in Algebra. Though soft-spoken, his group often looks to him as a leader. It shows how Mason puts his education as his top priority with how well he does and how hard he works. Nice Job, Mason!
