The wait is over! The points have been tallied, and this yearβs HOUSE CHAMPIONS have been revealed!
All of our students in all four houses have worked so hard to earn House Points for things like being kind, being helpful, exceeding expectations, teamwork, integrity, and academic achievement. It was a TIGHT race, and all of the houses deserve a lot of creditβ¦ but there can only be one House Champion! π
In fourth place, with 6693 total points, is ISIBINDI! ππ¦π
In third place, with 6728 total points, is ALTRUISMO! π€ππ€
In second place, with 6813 total points, is AMISTAD! β€οΈπ¦β€οΈ
And finally, in first place, with a whopping 7402 total points, is RΓVEUR! ππΊππ₯
Congratulations House of Dreamers! And congratulations to all of the Houses for your incredibly hard work all year long!
While not every team could take home the first-place trophy, every team demonstrated growth, determination, perseverance, and sportsmanship! There are four houses, but we are ONE FAMILY! There truly are no losers in this competition! πβ€οΈπ€π

We wanted to take an opportunity to thank all of the businesses and individuals that supported our fundraising efforts this April for Autism Acceptance Month!
We would first like to thank Dave Donate and the staff of The Orchard for hosting us year after year for our guest bartending Saturday nights! Thank you to the Pressley staff who donated their time to bartend, as well as the staff, families, and friends who came out to support and throw a little cash in our tip jars.
We also would like to thank Jason Beam and the staff of Woodside Bar and Grill for hosting and sponsoring our Trivia Night event! Thank you to our staff volunteers and all of the teams who came out to support this event! Thank you to Edward Troll and Richland Cinemas for donating our grand prize items! Thank you to Alpine Beverage, Auntie Anne's Pretzels Johnstown Galleria, Chili's, Primanti Bros., Perkins, Dairy Queen, and Habits for donating our round and door prizes!
We are so appreciative of all of your support! Every cent raised will go towards our students and completing the final phases of our Playground Project! Building our students a playground has been our goal for over a decade, and because of you all we are finally on the cusp of achieving this dream! Thank you all so much!
Lastly, we'd just like to urge everyone reading this to support the businesses who support us and our students! They have given so generously, and they are all so deserving of your business in return!
Thank you all! πππππ
