8th Grade Formal. The night was just as beautiful as they were!!!! Thank you to all who helped the event.

It might just be one little paperback book to you, but it means a lot to us! Please help your students look for missing books this summer to help us reclaim missing items! We want to continue to provide all our returning and new Hawks with plenty of choices to read and learn from in our library but we need your help returning or replacing these overdue books! Please e-mail Ms. Moyers, our Media Specialist, with any questions! Thank you Hawks!

REMINDER: June 5, 2026 is the last day of school for the 2025-2026 school year. This is a FULL DAY of school for both students and staff.
