Greetings Pioneers,
It’s hard to believe that I am writing the last “Week Ahead” for the 2023-24 school year.
We have been busy celebrating our wonderful seniors as we send them off into the community to be contributing members of our society! Among our celebrations in the last two weeks were Seniors’ Last Day – Clap Out, Honors Night, Prom, NHS Induction (Tuesday) and next week will be their commencement ceremony and the all night senior party. Congratulations to all our seniors and good luck! We can’t wait to hear of your future successes! Congratulations and Reminders – Seniors

Please make sure you plan for your family trips when school is out. We encourage families to create memories and ask that you plan these trips according to the district’s school calendar. Please be aware that students’ absences for family vacations does count towards audit. Our teachers work hard to ensure that every minute counts as our motto is “bell to bell instruction”. Your partnership and support are key to ensuring that your child doesn’t fall behind due to family vacations during school time.
The last day of school is June 7th. Students will have finals June 5-7th. Finals will not be given earlier. Please make any vacation arrangements after the last day of school. Students who are going on vacation earlier will be impacted by the audit policy.
As always, we appreciate your support and encourage you to reach out with any questions or concerns.
