Student Drop Off and Pick Up:

Please do not park in the bus loop at the main entrance during 7:00-7:30 AM or 2:00-2:20 PM. We have several buses that utilize this area during those times. 

End 68 Hours of Hunger:

The 68 Hours program is a food program that each household and every student has access to. Once a week on Thursday (or earlier depending on Holiday and break schedule) the students come down at the end of the day to receive their bag(s) of groceries. The food items are non-perishables such pastas, cereal, canned goods, peanut butter, and other pantry food items. If you are interested in having your household participate, please contact your student’s counselor, and let them know. We hope you have a fantastic school year.
