*Picture Retakes* will be Tuesday November 4, 2025. If your student missed the original picture day or needs retakes please mark your calendar for retake day! Also, Fall sport pictures, Student Council & 8th grade banner pictures will be taken. So if your student played baseball, softball or ran cross country they will have pictures. If your student is on student council they will be getting their picture taken. If your 8th grader has played or will be playing a sport they will have their picture taken for their banner!!

Just a reminder of the school policy on sickness. Students must be symptom free for 24 hours before returning to school. Any student who has a fever and/or vomiting/diarrhea at school will be sent home and are expected to stay home until symptom free for 24 hours.
