Our Character Matter’s word last week was “ATTITUDE” and was presented by our Senior Kylie Miller.
A great attitude prioritizes the team's goals above personal statistics or glory. This involves being willing to take on any role the coach asks of you. It's about being a great teammate, whether you're on the court or on the sidelines, and understanding that the team's success is a shared victory.
Our varsity recipient for “Attitude” is Kylie Miller. Even when Kylie is not on the court, she is fully in the game. From the sideline, she is cheering our team on, she’s a consistent source of encouragement, and has been a dedicated participant in the volleyball program for the past 6 years. She consistently shows up for every single practice and pushes her teammates to be better. Whether it’s setting up equipment, putting it away, or keeping book, she always steps up to the plate to make the team better without complaint. Her dedication, selflessness, and sportsmanship are an inspiration to us all.
Our JV recipient for “Attitude” is Kharina Bridges. Kharina shows up every day with a great attitude and a willingness to do whatever is asked. Her impact goes far beyond her technical skills on the court; she builds a foundation of resilience and trust that will help her team succeed both on and off the court. She is also willing to help when needed and is always the first one to volunteer to set up and tear down the nets.
Congratulations, ladies!!!

Earlier today, a student experiencing a mental health crisis was reported to staff, who acted quickly and appropriately to ensure the student received immediate support. At no time was there an immediate threat of harm to anyone in the building. While a potentially concerning item was found in the student’s possession, it was not used in a threatening manner, and the situation was handled calmly and safely. We commend our students and staff for their quick action, compassion, and commitment to maintaining a safe and supportive environment for all.

Our 9/11 day of service kicked off this morning with a whole school assembly with our AFJROTC posting colors, Piper singing a beautiful rendition of the national anthem, Mr. Zimmerman and Mr. K sharing their stories, and Mr. Ferruggia imparting historical knowledge. We can't wait to show the community what we're about today- service, kindness, and family.
Students in Mr. Soviskys AP Psychology class put their creativity and sweet tooth to the test by constructing model neurons and demonstrating the basics of neurotransmission using candy. By turning a complex concept into a hands-on edible project, students were able to better visualize how information travels in the brain and body.
This year our Character Matters' words are being presented by our Seniors. Our senior, Ashlynn Fisher, presented the word “Energy” last week to the team. The concept of “good energy” in a person typically refers to a positive, uplifting, vibrant presence. Energy can be positive or negative, but it’s always contagious to those around them.
The varsity award recipient for “Energy” is Rylee King. Rylee possesses a consistent positive energy on and off the court. You can always count on her to encourage her teammates and have a smile on her face. She focuses on improving each play rather than dwelling on past mistakes. She is a team leader, and her positive energy was infectious during the Seneca match and ignited the team to come back from behind for the win!
The JV player who has demonstrated the “ENERGY” we are looking for as a leader is Abigail Whitney. Abby is always communicating with her teammates. She is inspiring, motivating, uplifting, and encouraging while working hard to not only achieve her personal goals, but to enhance and exceed the common goals of her team.
Congratulations!
We are excited to get this year started! Each day will present an opportunity to embrace your own learning journey, grow your leadership, and make new memories. 🎉 We can’t wait to celebrate your successes! 🚌 See you then! 😊

Attention parents of graduating seniors! Each graduating senior will receive 14 tickets in total tomorrow at practice. All 14 of these tickets can be used outside in the stadium if the ceremony is held there. However, only the 4 white-colored tickets can be used indoors if the ceremony has to be moved due to the weather. This is due to seating and space within the auditorium. The tickets are marked with what can be used where.
