This school year we will conduct at least five lockdown drills and monthly fire drills. During these drills, students, faculty, and staff follow prescribed safety steps to keep them safe and secure during an emergency situation. If you have any questions, please let me know. Respectfully, Lisa Vaughn

Drop-Off Procedures

When dropping off students in the morning, please pull all the way down to the end of the white lines on the pavement. Having as many cars as possible to drop off at the same time helps keep traffic moving. We also may wave you forward even if someone is standing at the walkway. Again, this is to help with traffic flow. You may NOT drop students off in the parking lot (unless there is physical condition that limits or prevents a student from walking). Students may NOT be dropped off anywhere along the car line besides the designated drop off area. Thank you for your help and cooperation.

Great job students!

Not only did we reach our school goal for bringing in over 4000 cans for our food drive, we won the countywide competition for the first time in many years! Our school will receive a donation from Rooster Bush Automotive. Thanks to all who brought in cans. For reaching our school goal we will be entertained by Mr. Cooper doing dirt bike tricks at a special Christmas assembly. Congratulations to the 7th grade who brought in the most cans as a grade level with a grand total of 2023 cans. Great job! They will be rewarded with a movie and popcorn after Christmas break. The 6th grade brought in 1,446 cans and the 8th grade brought in 641. This has been a wonderful example of our school working together to benefit our community.
