📚 Help Us Preserve Our School History! 🦁 We are scanning old yearbooks to preserve our school memories and traditions. We are missing a few yearbooks and would appreciate it if you could loan us yours to scan. We will return it to you once we are finished. Help us preserve our Lion history! ❤️🦁

As teachers have begun putting in assignments and grades, you have begun getting notifications about your students. If you want to opt out of the notifications, in TeacherEase, go to Parent Main, then to Miscellaneous, then to Communications Preferences, and you can turn them off. However, it is all or nothing--you cannot set it to only get notifications for certain grades or classes.

The Lady Lions had a great showing at the Softball Jamboree this evening! 🥎❤️ They pulled together, played hard, and showed great teamwork. Proud of these girls and excited to see what this season brings! Go Lions! 🦁

Thank you to our PTO for providing our new playground swing and 75" smart tv for our elementary library! We appreciate the hard work it takes to earn the funds for these donations. Thank you Beth Fizer, Sarah Visser, Darlene Boren, and Jessica Pettit! ❤️❤️❤️
