We are excited to welcome the Class of 2026 at Open House! All incoming freshmen should be receiving a packet of information about the upcoming Open House scheduled for February 16. Incoming freshmen and their parents/guardians should carefully review the information prior to the event. Please bring the folder from the packet with you to Open House along with the completed documents that will be collected in the main gym.
Parking will be available by the Performing Arts Center off Gougar Road. The Open House will begin with an orientation session in the Auditorium/Performing Arts Center. We are looking forward to seeing our future Warriors at this valuable and informative evening.
Art Fundamentals students are using black marker to create calligraphic line designs filled with shapes and patterns. Small amounts of colored marker are added to highlight certain areas of the design. Working in marker means that you need to work with confidence and have a clear plan of action. "Mistakes" cannot be erased, so they become opportunities for problem solving to change them from distractions into contributions.
