Thanks to all of the students that participated in our activities and athletics this year. I am very proud of you for giving up your time to represent our school and our community.

Thanks to Mr. Holloway and his classes for putting the slide show together. 

Coaches  handed out letters and awards at their end of the season banquets so all awards for each student won't be read to allow for more time for spring fling. 

Also, if you received a letter for any sport or activity this year, stop by Coach Schmitt's office and he will get you a letter, pin or bar. 

The awards we will be recognizing are as follows

  • Academic All League
