Some of these include: vocal choirs, handbell choirs, intramurals, athletics, Rocket Club, field trips, residency programs, fine arts opportunities, Environmental Protection Agency Club, student leadership activities, and an emphasis on healthy living.
Our team of staff, parents, students, and community members work diligently to provide the basis for a positive and supportive educational climate. Together we celebrate individual accomplishments and growth and gratefully acknowledge our many community volunteers who enhance our school programs.
