🖤💛💙 Update to the Uniform Policy: To help students easily tell their black sweatshirts and hoodies apart (since it's difficult to see names written inside), we’re now allowing PTSA hoodies and sweatshirts to have a 2-inch initial-only monogram on the sleeve. This update will be reflected in our dress code soon!
✏️Please note: Monogramming is not allowed on uniform shirts at this time, as we’re working to keep a consistent look across all students.

Thanks so much for your support and understanding as we keep things clear and consistent for everyone! 🖤💛💙

Bittersweet moment as we see our 8th graders in their high school colors. So proud of all they've accomplished and excited for the next chapter. Once a hawk, always a hawk! 🩵🖤💛

This spring, seventh graders have delved into the lives of some of history's most extraordinary individuals. Last night marked the culmination of their study as they brought to life the remarkable stories and impactful contributions of these figures, from groundbreaking mathematicians and visionary scientists to inspiring authors and transformative leaders. Parents and administration were impressed as students shared what they had learned and the heroes who resonated with them. Last night was a wonderful culmination of students' hard work, and we thank parents and family members for joining us to celebrate their discoveries!
