Parents and Students,
We’ve had a great two weeks of school! We loved celebrating our Leadership Pep Rally with all that could attend. We will continue striving to provide leadership opportunities for all students.
We also enjoyed having all of the grandparents here this past Friday! What a wonderful group of people to honor!
As we move into the school year, please keep in mind we are striving for 98% attendance rate for students and staff, 10% increase in performance with student groups, and 100% of our students understanding and applying leadership skills. We appreciate your help meeting our goals!
We, THE Tigers, will be inspired to lead, honor, and excel today!
Thank you,
Tara Bailey
