Welcome Back 21-22 School Year
*In my video I mistaking said students start Wednesday 9/2, I meant to say Thursday 9/2.
Getting back to the school routine is never easy, but seeing friends everyday, learning new things, attending games and having some structure in the day is a good thing. I am looking forward to an amazing year!
On September 2, we will follow a Special Schedule where all classes will meet. Everyone will report to their Period 1 class by 8am. Seniors who have Period 1 Independent should be in the building by 8:45am. and check in with Mrs. Raffaele in front of the Little Theater.
Students should bring a copy of their schedule/screen shot or have access to Genesis via your phone.
Health classes will start on Friday, 9/3. All students should report to the Gym on the first day.
We will start the year with no lockers being used. This will be reevaluated in late September.
The entire school year has been planned out related to the rotation schedule. See link to the calendar for the year: 2021 - 2022 Rotation Schedule

Parents will need to monitor their child’s health. There will not be a daily health form; however, it is imperative that if your child is not feeling well that they do not attend school. As we experienced last year, the ripple effect of a sick child reporting to school has a drastic impact on other students and operations. So again, if your child is not feeling well, they need to stay home.
Based upon Executive Order 251 that went into effect on Monday, August 9, 2021, all students and staff are required to wear a face covering upon entry to school, as well as when traveling in school busses. Any visitors will also be required to wear a face covering.
