There has been a change in tonight's home Volleyball game schedule against San Augustine. There will be no JV game, so the Varsity game will begin at 5PM.
Let's give a shout out to our latest Habit Heroes, Heaven and Brylee! Heaven took initiative and was thinking win-win by helping a student with their notes in science when they had to step out for a minute, and Brylee was proactive by helping to keep our school clean without being asked!
Seniors and Senior Parents, just a reminder that cap and gown orders are due Thursday, October 1st, and receipts must be submitted to Mrs. Ogg by Friday, October 2nd for reimbursement!
Learning about FFA and a Life Skill! 💙💛
Mrs. Creech’s 8th and 9th Grade Principles of Agriculture students have been learning all about FFA Official Dress last week! On Friday, they tackled one of the most important skills—learning how to tie a Windsor knot!
Because let’s be honest… knowing how to tie a tie is a life skill that will come in handy long after the FFA jacket comes off!
These students will be pros before they know it! We’re loving watching them learn, grow, and add new skills to their toolbox.

Let's kick off our Fall Festival by celebrating Red Ribbon Week with our dress-up days on October 26th-30th!
Monday - Superhero Day - Wear your favorite superhero costume or shirt to celebrate our kickoff for the Fall Festival and the start of Red Ribbon Week! All heroes make a difference by being great role models and staying drug free, and we can too! If your superhero costume has a mask, it must be taken off after morning sales and costumes should still adhere to our school dress code!
Tuesday - Neon Day - Our futures are too bright, and we continue to shine by staying drug-free and making positive choices every day! Wear bright color neon clothes or sunglasses to look towards that bright future!
Wednesday - Duo/Trio/Quad Day - Squad goals! We are all better together when we stay drug-free! Match outfits with up to three other people to show off your dynamic team!
Thursday - Hero Day (Police, Firefighter, Doctor, Nurse, EMT, Military) - Let’s celebrate the real heroes by dressing up and celebrating those that continue to help us each day! Dress up as a police officer, firefighter, doctor, nurse, EMT, or military officer to show how much we are glad for our heroes! Accessories like toy guns or handcuffs should not be included.
Friday - Costume Contest - Our annual costume contest! Dress up to impress and enjoy our massive celebration as we begin our Fall Festival!
