We are fortunate to continue a strong relationship with local law enforcement on many levels, much of that in an effort to be proactive with the goal that many of those measures will never be necessary, but to be prepared if they are. Deputy Brandan Hodges, our School Resource Office, led local police and a SWAT team through the Jr./Sr. High after school hours today.
There were no issues and this was a pre-scheduled visit for them to practice. The visit also gave those officers the opportunity to learn our building, the hallways, entries and exits. . We are very fortunate for the close working relationships we have and how they value our students. Thank you!
We are pleased to officially announce we have a new Jr./Sr. High Principal starting September 29th! Mrs. Jennifer Hess will be joining our Comet Team and we are fortunate to have her. Please see this link for a letter coming home with Jr./Sr. High students today: https://5il.co/zdjg

Welcome to Alexandria Infante, new First Grade Teacher, who will be starting today with students in one of our classroom.
