News and Events

Let me be the first to apologize for the sporadic nature of updates lately. We all agree that home-school communication is vital, and admittedly, we have some improvements to make to our end of that structure. That being said, here are some important school-wide announcements to share with you all:
  • There will be a Course Fair for all 8th graders and their families this Thursday night (2/7) from 6:30-8:00pm in the high school library. Shortly thereafter, 8th graders will begin registering for their 9th grade courses.
  • By this point, all House C students have been given trimester two progress reports for humanities, math, and science. Please check in with your child if you have not yet seen these reports.
  • Sign-ups for spring sports have begun. If your child will be playing baseball, softball, or track and field, there is a mandatory meeting on April 1st at 6:00pm in the MS gym.
  • Please note a change to the calendar. Your handbook/calendar shows Tuesday 3/5 has been set aside for conferences. House C will not be holding them on that day, but will instead be offering them over a couple of evenings in March. We will follow up as soon as those dates have been determined.
  • There will be a concert this Friday night - Blackberry Jam - at 7:30pm in the high school auditorium. $5 suggested donation. This event has been rescheduled to March 8, due to the expected storm on Friday.
  • There will be a middle school dance on Friday 2/15 from 7:00-9:00pm. $4 admission.
  • While we are a couple of weeks past the field trip we took to Cairns, we wanted to let you all know that our students represented us so well. From students pushing themselves to try something new, to helping each other out, to leaving the space better than we found it, we saw examples of citizenship and perseverance that made us proud.
As always, should you have any questions, please don't hesitate to be in touch with any one of us.

Have a great week!

House C
