Mr. Rychtarsky’s classes observed the 24th Anniversary of 9/11 by watching the official video from the 9/11 Memorial & Museum on Thursday, September 11. The video offers a moving glimpse into the personal stories of four survivors of the terrorist attacks that shook America to its core.

As a follow-up, students are working through a self-paced webquest that allows them to explore more information about the events of 9/11. Through this activity, they are hearing additional firsthand accounts from survivors and family members of those who were lost.

This experience is a part of our continued effort to honor the memories of those affected and ensure that we Never Forget. Where were you when the World Stopped Turning?

ATTENTION PARENT DROP-OFF DRIVERS: Please see the diagram for dropping off children in the parent drop-off line. We have been having parent drop off vehicles interfering with buses trying to get to the rear of the school building between 7:50 and 8:00 AM in the concession stand area. Vehicles with only Jr./Sr. HS students to be dropped off should follow the RED ROUTE, Vehicles dropping off elementary students or a combination of Jr./Sr. HS and elementary students should follow the YELLOW ROUTE. Additionally, it would be helpful if space between vehicles could be kept to a minimum. We appreciate your help.

What a fun first day in Mrs. Wilcox's classroom! Our chemistry students were challenged to solve a number of riddles, allowing them to continue onto the next activity of trying to identify where proper safety equipment was located throughout the classroom. Once found, a student had to put each piece of equipment on to lead their group to victory. Lots of laughs and definitely a day to remember!!
