Happy Veterans Day! Thank you to all the servicemen and women who have served our country.

These awesome kids had Donuts with the Principal today. Always a great way to start a school day. Keep up the good work!

Out with the old in with the new! We upgraded our bleachers to include some aisles with handrails and also change the color from orange to gray. This means that there is a roll off dumpster on the west side of the Tom Young Community Center that is full of the old orange bleachers. If anyone wants to come and grab some of them as a souvenir or if someone would want to do a project with them they are certainly welcome to come and grab as many as they want! The dumpster will be picked up tomorrow at around 1 o’clock so you need to get anything out of there before that!

The sophomore class is testing on European exploration that led to the colonization and control of "the New World" and later Africa and Asia.
