Thank you for your dedication to students, your support of staff, and your commitment to creating a safe, positive environment where everyone can grow and succeed. The impact you make each day reaches far beyond the walls of your school.
We appreciate you today and every day! 🍎

Happy School Lunch Hero Day! 🦸♀️🍎
Today, we celebrate the amazing individuals who do so much more than serve meals—they serve kindness, comfort, and care to our students each and every day.
From early mornings to busy lunch lines, our cafeteria staff works tirelessly to make sure students are nourished and ready to learn. Their smiles, patience, and dedication do not go unnoticed.
Thank you for being true heroes in our schools. You make a difference one meal—and one student—at a time!
We appreciate you more than words can say! 💛

Today, we celebrate the incredible heart of our school—our administrative professionals!
From the moment you walk through our doors, they are the welcoming smiles, the problem-solvers, the organizers, and the calm in the chaos. They keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes while supporting students, staff, and families with patience and care.

On April 16, Mrs. Wilson and Ms. Jarombek (retired 409 employee) took a group of artists to the 44th Annual Highland Art Day. Students displayed artwork in a juried show and enjoyed a beautiful, sunny day interacting with other artists and creating art! Senior, Susan Agnew, received two Honorable Mention awards for two of her watercolor paintings, and Junior, Taryn Green, received an Honorable Mention for her watercolor painting. It was a fun day for everyone and something that students look forward to every year!
