Good morning, Eagles,

My anticipation and excitement for the new school year builds each day.  Last week, our campus was filled by the energy of 1000+ students as fall activities began...there is nothing quite like a high school at the start of a school year!  That energy will build this week with our first Ramp-Up day on Thursday, August 26 from 12:30 pm to 5:00 pm.  Our second offering is on Monday, August 30 from 3:00 pm - 7:00 pm.  These days are not required, but we encourage you to come to get ready for the new year.  Specifics are below, but the overall purpose is this--build connections as we get ready for a great start.  Please be in touch with me or my team if you have questions on Ramp-Up days or anything at all.  

Thank you & Go Eagles!
