As we prepare for the new school year, we want to remind you that all students must remain on campus for lunch during the first two weeks of school. Off-campus lunch privilege is a great opportunity for our juniors and seniors. To ensure a smooth and safe start to the year, juniors and seniors who wish to have off-campus lunch privileges must first complete the necessary steps and paperwork. This includes purchasing a parking pass and submitting a completed Off-Campus Lunch Privilege Form and turning it into Student Services. These forms can be found on our school website. This process is essential for us to maintain student accountability and keep everyone safe.
If your junior or senior would prefer not to eat in the cafeteria during this time, please remind them to bring a sack lunch.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we prioritize the well-being of our school community. We are looking forward to a great year!

In celebration of National Night Out we'd like to share our Standard Response Protocol (SRP)! Stop by our booth and test your knowledge tonight!
We use the Standard Response Protocol (SRP) districtwide so that in any emergency, students and staff know exactly what to do.
This graphic shows the five key actions everyone on campus is trained to follow:
🔒 Hold – Stay in place, clear the halls
🚪 Secure – Lock outside doors
🚨 Lockdown – Locks, lights, out of sight
🚶♂️ Evacuate – Move to a safe location
⚠️ Shelter – Use safety strategies for hazards like weather or chemical spills
👨👩👧👦 Reunification – A safe, organized process to reunite students with families after an emergency
We’re sharing this information to help students and families feel safe and confident in any situation. These six clear, consistent directives help students, staff, and first responders respond in an emergency.
By sharing this plan with our parents and community, we’re working to build trust, promote transparency, and create a stronger, safer school environment for every student.
