Important School Calendar Change!
In light of the upcoming solar eclipse on April 8th, we've decided to reschedule the Faculty Senate early dismissal that was originally scheduled for April 19th to this date to coincide with this historic event.
We believe that witnessing such a rare celestial occurrence can be an educational and memorable experience for our students. Due to the timing of the eclipse and by adjusting the early dismissal date, we aim to provide ample opportunity for everyone to safely observe and appreciate the solar eclipse together.
Please mark your calendars accordingly! The new date for the Faculty Senate early dismissal is April 8th. April 19th will now be a full school day. We appreciate your understanding and support as we strive to create enriching experiences for our school community.
