We are ready to ignite the 2026-2027 school year!

Wildcat Spotlight: We would like to take a moment to shine the spotlight Mrs. Amanda Huffman, one of our 8th Grade Math Teachers who does a phenomenal job making math relatable, understandable, and accessible for all students. She has a unique ability to break down complex skills and concepts in ways that help every student feel confident and capable of success. Through hands-on learning experiences and engaging instruction, Mrs. Huffman connects math vocabulary and concepts to real-world situations and other content areas, helping students see the value and relevance of what they are learning. She consistently encourages and challenges her students to reach their full potential, always pushing them to be as successful as she knows they can be. Her dedication, creativity, and belief in her students make a lasting impact in the classroom every day.

Mrs. Huffman's impact stretches beyond the classroom as she also builds positive relationships with her students outside of the classroom by helping with our Girls' Basketball Team as Assistant Coach and planning our 8th grade field trip.

We appreciate all that she does for our school and community!
