The last day of school is so bitter sweet. Today we said farewell to four of our amazing staff that are retiring. Thank you Bob Vance, Dianne Bush, Tammy Wellen and Wendy Phillips. Best wishes and happy travels!
Reminder: yearbooks will be distributed this summer.
This year the school elected to change to a “summer book” in order to be able to include many activities that were pushed. Without this switch, many sports—like football, baseball, softball, and track— and events—like graduation—would not have been included at all. While we know it’s not ideal to pick up a book in the summer, the students have worked incredibly hard this year to increase coverage for students and events, and we hope each student loves this book as much as we’ve loved creating it.
The students on the staff cannot wait to hand out this book to their peers. A distribution day will be coordinated by the yearbook staff after we receive the books, which will be later this summer; if students would like to, they can have their friends sign their book at this event. Please be on the lookout for notifications from the district’s alert system & social media posts regarding a distribution day later this summer.
