Mrs. Huff’s Digital Photography class created art by using the shutter speed and the resource of light. It took a little practice, but here are their final photographs.
Through the Month of April, the character pillar we will focus on is being PATIENT. Be PATIENT with things that are hard or uncomfortable. Be PATIENT with ourselves. Be PATIENT with those around us.

REMEMBER TO BRING YOUR LUNCH!!

We have a large number of forgotten lunches that are being dropped off at campus. Please limit this as much as possible and remind your scholars before they leave the house, to grab their lunch. NO OUTSIDE FOOD (fast food or delivery) is allowed. The school does not provide a lunch if your scholar forgets.
DID YOU ORDER LUNCH?
HERE ARE A FEW REMINDERS:
- Communicate with your scholar if you ordered lunch for them so they know to pick it up.
- If a lunch is ordered and not picked up during lunch time, it will be donated.
- If your scholar is absent, cancel the order or contact the front office if you want it saved by 10:00 am, otherwise it will be donated.
- If you want a friend to pick up your lunch, it must be communicated to the front office by 10:00 am so the records can be updated.
IN ORDER TO EXCUSE AN ABSENCE, YOU MUST CALL BEFORE 10:00 AM THE SAME DAY OF THE ABSENCE.
EXCUSED ABSENCE: An excused absence is an absence due to illness, doctor appointment, bereavement, or family emergencies.
Need a Replacement Scholar ID???
