Calls for students grades 9 – 12 will go out at 5 pm if the student was marked absent at some point throughout the day (the call will include periods absent).

Families who have opted out of calls will not receive these calls. Questions regarding student attendance issues should be directed to the student’s school of record.
3 FUN nights around the corner. Years ago we made the decision rather than sell to fundraise, let's host some fun evenings and events. These positive nights out support our positive behavior rewards and incentive trips at the school. Hope to see you at one or all. First one up is our first round of decades-themed trivia on Saturday, February 17th. Decades dress is highly encouraged and there may even be a prize for the best dressed team. Any questions, feel free to contact the school. Food, fun and competition. What's not to love?
