Principal's Message

Hello Wolfpack!

I hope this message finds you well. As we begin winter sports competition, I truly enjoyed attending the basketball games, and I am excited to attend upcoming wrestling and gymnastics events. I encourage you to join in the excitement by attending and supporting our talented young athletes.

On a related note, I would like to extend a special invitation to you for our Family Advisory Group meeting scheduled for this Wednesday evening. This gathering provides an invaluable platform for us to review the feedback received from our students during the Student Advisory Group sessions. Together, we will engage in meaningful discussions about how we can further support our students and implement improvements in our educational systems.

Your participation is crucial, as your insights and perspectives as parents play a vital role in shaping the strategies and initiatives that directly impact our students' experiences. We believe that a collaborative approach involving parents, students, and educators leads to a more comprehensive understanding and effective solutions.

If you have the time and interest, I encourage you to join us at the Family Advisory Group meeting. Your presence and contributions will be highly appreciated as we work towards creating a nurturing and supportive environment for our students.

Thank you for your ongoing support, and I look forward to seeing you on Wednesday.

The strength of the wolf is in the pack.

Tami McCracken
