Dear Tiger Community,

Thank you.
Recently, students in Mrs. Brown’s 5th and 6th Grade art classes brought their creativity to life by designing 8-pointed stars that showcased radial symmetry. Not only did the students enjoy the artistic challenge, but they also honed their measuring skills throughout the process. To guide them, Mrs. Brown used a large wooden ruler—gifted to her by Mr. Rarig, the technical education teacher—as a visual tool to teach the students about measuring in inches and quarter inches. This project was a fantastic example of how the art and technical education departments can collaborate to enrich students' learning experiences.

Dear Tiger Community,
The high school / middle school building experienced a water issue today. Due to the lack of water, we will be dismissing students in grades 5 through 12 at 11:30 am today, Thursday, March 20th, 2025. All students will be offered lunch before dismissal.
Students in kindergarten to fourth grade will remain in school and be dismissed at normal time. We continue to investigate the water system issue related to operating the secondary school building tomorrow and will update you when more information is available.
Thank you.

These rewards have inspired a love of reading that their teachers hope will last a lifetime! 📖📚
