CHANGES FOR 2025-2026 SCHOOL YEAR - As this year winds down and we start getting things in place for next school year, there are a few changes coming to the calendar and daily schedule we want to make you aware of:
- There will be no scheduled Fridays except for the Friday after Labor Day (September 5) and float-building day for 6-12 Grades (September 19). All other weeks will be Monday - Thursday.
- The 6th Grade will be included in the Middle School, and the 5th Grade will stay part of the elementary but with only one primary teacher.
- There will no longer be a nutrition break for Middle School and High School students. All students will be able to eat breakfast before school from 7:40 AM - 8:00 AM.
Contact the administration if you have any questions about these changes.
