On Thursday, March 2, 2023, we will be hosting Parent Teacher Conferences! Come in and meet with your children's teachers!! Conferences will be from 4:00-6:00 that evening!

Winter Ball is TOMORROW!!! (Saturday, February 25, 2023). Please see the attached map for instructions on drop off and pickup. Doors will open at 5:45 pm. There are multiple events occurring in town tomorrow evening. In addition to the Harriman High School boys basketball game, there will also be a play at The Princess Theatre on Roane Street, across from our venue. Please pay special attention to the map that, due to the congestion on Roane Street for the play, you MUST exit the drop off/pick up area by turning LEFT on Walden Avenue. This will apply for both the drop off and pick up times. Please do not park in the parking lot for drop off or pick up. This will interfere with the flow of traffic and make both processes take longer. Faculty and staff will be present at drop off and pick up to aid in getting students into the building. There will also be signage posted along the street to help direct traffic accordingly. Remember that tickets will NOT be sold at the door, so they MUST be bought from the office by the end of the day, TODAY (Friday, February 24, 2023)!!

Check out the February newsletter! Paper copies are also coming home, today! Ask your student for the bright pink piece of paper they received during their afternoon homeroom time!
