On World Teachers Day, we pause and reflect on the profound impact teachers have on our world. They do more than teach lessons—they spark imaginations, instill confidence, and build brighter futures. 🚀
Thank you for everything you do!

October is Bullying Prevention Awareness Month. 💙
This month reminds us of the power we each have to make a difference in how we treat one another. A safe, supportive school starts with small actions—like a kind word or a simple smile.
Let’s commit to building a school community where every student feels safe, seen, and supported every day! 🙌

Attendance Matters! ✨📚
Health-related absences are one of the top reasons students miss class—but there are simple ways families can help prevent them:
✅ Make sure your child gets plenty of sleep
✅ Consume nutritious meals to fuel learning
✅ Encourage regular handwashing and healthy habits at home
By supporting healthy routines, families help students attend school consistently and succeed every day!

📚 On Thursday and Friday, Ms. Ambrose’s English 12 DE classes participated in a college admission simulation!
With guidance from Ms. Rush, students acted as enrollment committees who had to evaluate a list of ten candidates, decide which three to accept, and defend their choices. 🎓
The activity gave them a behind-the-scenes look at the college admissions process from the flip side, and sparked thoughtful discussions about what makes an applicant stand out. 🌟
