It is important all students pick up their class schedules and that ALL 9th, 10th and 11th grade students have their pictures taken during Orientation. 12th grade students are NOT to have pictures taken this year.Student photos are required for the production of Student IDs. FYI…there is no charge for a picture ID taken by Life Touch.

Students should begin by having their school picture taken for their identification card and the yearbook. Seniors do NOT need their photos taken as they will be supplying the Yearbook staff with their Senior Picture. Students use their identification card for their drivers permit/license test, admittance to school dances, etc. If you wish to purchase pictures, please have the enclosed Lifetouch packet completed with payment for the package you are selecting. After having your picture taken go to the grade level table in the commons. Otherimportant forms can be found on our website:

Students and parents will pick-up their first semester schedule and locker combination at the check-in table. Parents can pay for food service and purchase a planner at this time if they wish. Parents and students are then encouraged to explore the building, locate their classrooms and try their locker combination. Parents can sign-up for 112 Parent Portal with a valid ID at Orientation.

On Wednesday, August 24, we will host an Open House for parents and community members. We will begin at 6:30 pm with a general session and introduction to our school.
