Connectivity Day- Our next connectivity is January 29th and students must have permission slips to participate in the activities. Permission slips can be picked up in the Attendance Office and returned there as well. We do not want anyone left out so please be sure these are turned in.

Student IDs- Starting in January, students will be required to have their student IDs with them at all times to ensure they are in the right locations when their class has a substitute, attend school events, and participate in other related school activities. 

AP Capstone Research Class Announcement- Parents, it is an exciting time in the AP Capstone Research classes! The AP Capstone Research students will soon begin collecting data for their projects.

Happy New Year, Titans! As we kick off 2026 and begin the second semester, the Student Services team is here to help every student start the year with a clear sense of purpose. A new semester is more than just a schedule change; it’s a Fresh Start—an opportunity to build on your successes from the fall and pivot where needed.

🌱 The "Semester Reset": Reflect & Refocus

Before diving into new assignments, we encourage students to take 10 minutes to reflect on the first half of the year. Ask yourself:

Tip for Success: Instead of setting a huge "Resolution," try setting a Process Goal. Instead of saying "I want an A in English," try "I will check my grades every Sunday night." Focusing on the process makes the product possible!
