Have your students come home saying their teachers were doing some pretty silly things this week? Well our elementary staff celebrated the first week of the final trimester with an "under ground" Spirit Week! Our staff members were decked out in pink, drank out of anything but a cup, wore patterns galore, and dressed like true royalty!
Warriors teach together, learn together, and we PLAY together!
Here's to the final trimester of the school year! Second trimester grades will be posted Skyward after 3:00pm.
Teachers and students celebrated the start of the 3rd trimester on Monday with bubbles, music, and flamingos! We are ready for a Fla-MAZING trimester! Let's go Warriors!

Henry was nominated by his peers to receive the Warrior Coin, and their words say it best: “He is always kind and ready to help anyone. He’s a great friend and truly deserves this,” and “He is a great friend on the bus and is nice.” We love seeing students recognize kindness and friendship in each other—way to go, Henry!
Mrs. Hensley was also honored with a Warrior Coin for always putting students first and creating a positive climate and culture where both students and staff are excited to come to school. She shows up for all students with support, strategies, kindness, and inclusion every single day. We are so lucky to have her as part of our school family!
To top it all off, our students had a blast during the Cup Stacking Challenge and ended the event with a whole-school Cupid Shuffle that had everyone smiling and moving together.
It’s moments like these that remind us how special our school community truly is. 💙
Dear Families,
As we continue our middle school athletic season, we want to share a reminder regarding student expectations at school-sponsored athletic events.
Our goal is to provide a safe, respectful, and enjoyable environment for our student-athletes, spectators, officials, and families. To support this, please review the following expectations with your child(ren):
Student Expectations at Middle School Games
-Students are expected to be present to watch and support the team.
-Students must remain in designated seating areas unless going to the restroom or concession stand. After attending to either of those areas, students must promptly return to the gym.
-Wandering the halls, running through the stands or along the sidelines while games are in progress, or gathering in the commons is not permitted.
-Students are expected to follow staff directions the first time and demonstrate respectful and safe behavior at all times.
Consequences
Students who do not meet these expectations may be:
-Removed from the event immediately
-Subject to progressive disciplinary consequences
-Restricted from attending future athletic events or school activities
-These expectations apply at all school-sponsored events, regardless of location.
K–4 Student Supervision
We would also like to remind families that students in grades K–4 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times while attending middle school athletic events. Unsupervised K–4 students will have a parent contacted and be asked to leave the event.
We appreciate your partnership in reinforcing these expectations so that our events remain positive experiences for everyone involved. Thank you for your continued support of our students and athletic programs.
