Dear Students and Families,
It’s time to celebrate the Class of 2025! Senior Spirit Week kicks off next week, and we are thrilled to honor our seniors with a week full of fun, pride, and memories. We encourage all seniors (and staff!) to show their spirit each day as we count down to graduation!
Here’s the lineup for the week:
Monday — Pajama Day
Roll out of bed and come comfy! Cozy pajamas all day.
Tuesday — Decades Day
Throw it back! Dress from your favorite decade — whether it’s the ’70s, ’90s, or anywhere in between.
Wednesday — College & Career Day
Show off your future! Rep your college, trade, military, or career gear.
Thursday — Throwback Thursday
Dig into the archives — wear something from your earlier school years (elementary or middle school memories welcome!).
Friday — Senior Destination Day
It’s all about the Class of 2025! Represent the college you plan to attend, your class colors, or school spirit gear loud and proud.
Let’s make this final Spirit Week one to remember. Seniors, this is your time — let’s celebrate YOU!

Last Friday, our parents had a powerful and inspiring experience at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History all thanks to the leadership of Mrs. Miller, our dedicated Family Engagement Facilitator.
Mrs. Miller brought families together for a meaningful day of connection, learning, and reflection as we explored the rich and resilient history of African Americans. Moments like these deepen our community ties and remind us of the importance of understanding and celebrating our collective story.
Thank you, Mrs. Miller, for creating opportunities that stretch our minds and strengthen our hearts. We’re grateful for the partnership and commitment of our families — together, we continue to grow!
