Quote of the week...

"People always say 'you have a great image'

Image...there is no image. It's character.

Character is who you are.

Image is who you want everyone else to see you as.

I don't care what my image is.

I want to have good character."

~Derek Jeter

NFHS Courses for students - The NFHS has released three courses and two in particular are for our student leaders. Dan Schuster, NFHS director of educational services stated, “We believe these courses will bring value to those who take them and will contribute to improving the interscholastic experience for young people.” The courses are called “Becoming a Leader” and “Leading Others”. Each course uses real student testimonies and focuses on building stronger student leaders.

Athletic fees can be paid in the school store. These must be paid before your student competes in an athletic competition. Fees are used to help offset all costs associated with running an athletic program (League dues, uniforms, official costs, transportation, rental fees, etc.). Please reach out to Mr. Ball if you have any questions or need assistance.
