Winter

If you are interested in participating in Winter or Spring sports, you need to sign up in FinalForms as soon as possible.  Coaches are trying to put together rosters, purchase uniforms, and gain an understanding of how many students are interested to see if we will have both Varsity and JV teams.

 

With the help of these students and our custodial staff, the high school Track and Field and Cross Country record boards are back on display after being in storage during construction. They showcase the legacy of those who came before and are ready to inspire the future Huskies!

Lets be Healthy Huskies

A Note From Nurse Becky

We hope this message finds you well! As we move further into the school year, we want to remind families of the importance of having an up-to-date medication authorization form on file for any student who may need medication during the school day.

If your child requires an EpiPen, inhaler, or any other prescribed or over-the-counter medication while at school, we must have the proper documentation completed and signed by both a parent/guardian and the child’s healthcare provider. This ensures we can safely and promptly assist your student in the event of a medical need.

Please note that medications cannot be given at school without a current medication form on file. This includes carrying or self-administering inhalers, EpiPens, or any other type of emergency medication.

Medication forms are available in the school office or can be downloaded from our district website. If you need assistance completing the form or have any questions about your child’s health plan, please don’t hesitate to contact our school nurse.

Thank you for helping us keep all students safe and healthy at school!
