Announcements

A few shifts we made this school year are moving to a Lower House (grades 9/10) and Upper House (grades 11/12) service model to better support students across our system. Ms. Tia Yarbrough is our lower house AP, and Ms. Andrea Dailey, is our upper house AP, subbing for Mx. Zoba until Winter Break. Please make sure you connect with the right administrator to best support your student. Mr. Krsto Budech is our lower house school counselor, and Ms. Kelly Creech is our upper house school counselor. Please work directly with your student’s school counselor for guidance, support, and direction for success in graduation and beyond.
