Be brave. Be strong. Be a Warrior.
A big thank you to our School Improvement Team for the time, effort, and thought they put into leading today's AM Session. They shared meaningful insight into the process, development, and planning behind our schoolwide goals for the year. Today’s discussion laid a strong foundation for collective growth as we've begun the new school year.
September is Suicide Prevention and Awareness Month. 💜
To help raise awareness, members of the Bring Change 2 Mind club have tied purple and teal ribbons — symbols of suicide prevention — around the trees in front of the school and posted support resources throughout the hallways.
You are not alone, Warriors. Help is always within reach.
Warriors Wear Orange on Fridays.
