May Principal's Message

Panther Families,

May has arrived and only 19 days of school remain with only 14 days left for our Seniors. This time of year gets very busy and tends to fly by. We have a long list of events at the end of this message that will help you plan your end of the school year. This month is traditionally one of great celebration with Seniors finalizing post-secondary plans, announcements of scholarship winners, and other fun events to close out the year. It also marks the transition of all students to new grade levels with big changes for our incoming 7^th graders, 8^th graders moving to high school, and Juniors preparing for their Senior year.

As I always tell our teachers and students when the end of the year ends, there is light at the end of the tunnel. It has been a long year, but a great year of learning, growth, and, hopefully, fun. We are fortunate to serve great and supportive students and parents. For that we are grateful. Please encourage your child to be positive and finish the year on a high note. We will do the same!

Jeff Baughman
