Today is Maintenance Worker Appreciation Day and we want to express our gratitude. This dedicated team works tirelessly every day to provide a safe environment for our students, staff, and families. Whenever there's an issue, they're quick to remedy it, ensuring minimal disruption to our students' education. They consistently go the extra mile, whether it's clearing snow in freezing temperatures or preparing buildings and fields for game days.

It’s time to recognize the vital role of school counselors during National School Counseling Week 2025. The role of school counselors is crucial in student development as they provide essential support in academic achievement, career exploration, and social-emotional learning. They advocate for students, helping to remove obstacles to success and ensuring that each student has the necessary resources to thrive.
School counselors assist with college and career planning, and offer guidance on mental health and emotional well-being. They act as a vital link between students, teachers, and families, fostering a positive and supportive school environment that empowers students to reach their full potential.
#SendACardToAFriendDay
National Send A Card To A Friend Day on February 7th encourages us to reach out to our friends by sending them a card. It's the perfect opportunity to express our thoughts and cherish the memories we have with our dear friends by mailing them a heartfelt note or message. The handwritten note is kind of a lost art, so let's bring it back.
