Emotional Intelligence Awareness Month reminds us that understanding our emotions is key to strong relationships and a healthy mindset. Encourage students to name their feelings and express them in positive ways! 😀
Consistent attendance matters! 📚
Chronic absenteeism isn’t just missing school—it’s missing out on learning. Students who are chronically absent are more likely to experience lower academic performance, higher dropout rates, and long-term disengagement.
Let’s work together to help our students show up, stay engaged, and succeed. Every day counts! 💪🎒

🌟 Key Club Trashcan Beautification Project 🌟
Our Key Club students are stepping up to keep our campus looking its best! 🗑🐾
During upcoming sporting events, keep an eye out for our newly decorated trash cans around the stadium. Students have transformed them with school spirit, fun designs, and creative messages to encourage everyone to “slam dunk” their trash instead of leaving it behind. 🏈🏀🎨
This project is all about promoting pride, cleanliness, and community at our games. A huge thank you to our Key Club members for their time, creativity, and leadership in making a difference!

Let’s commit to building a school community where every student feels safe, seen, and supported every day! 🙌

📚 On Thursday and Friday, Ms. Ambrose’s English 12 DE classes participated in a college admission simulation!
With guidance from Ms. Rush, students acted as enrollment committees who had to evaluate a list of ten candidates, decide which three to accept, and defend their choices. 🎓
The activity gave them a behind-the-scenes look at the college admissions process from the flip side, and sparked thoughtful discussions about what makes an applicant stand out. 🌟
