🏫 Building a More Accessible Future 🏫

Right now, our current high school building has three sets of stairs and is not ADA accessible. For students with disabilities, this creates barriers that make learning and daily routines much more difficult.

With the 2025 Millage Campaign, a new high school would provide modern, ADA-compliant facilities—ensuring every student has equal access to classrooms, resources, and opportunities.

Accessibility isn’t just a convenience; it’s a necessity. Together, we can create a school where all students can learn, grow, and succeed. ❤️🖤

Mrs. Hudson’s AP Psychology class explored how the nervous system responds during “fight or flight” by creating interactive body maps.

This hands-on activity helped students visualize and better understand the science behind our body’s reactions in high-stress situations. 👩‍🏫📚

We love seeing our students dive deep into learning with creativity and curiosity! 🌟

Students in Mrs. Annie Williamson’s class recently showcased their culinary and academic skills during a hands-on baking lab. In an industrial kitchen setting, they prepared a variety of breakfast muffins while applying math concepts like measurement, fractions, and conversions.

Along the way, they also practiced important food safety procedures, gaining firsthand experience in how professional kitchens differ from home cooking environments.

We’re proud of the way our students are connecting classroom learning with real-world skills! 🌟
