My Students

Our students are a unique and diverse group! They love to laugh, learn new things, share experiences and grow together. We are a small school that houses 5th-12th grade students which allows us to get to know our students well and work with them on their individual goals and needs.

My Project

Everyone loves to celebrate achieving a goal! Remember the thrill of going to the fair and getting cotton candy? Many of our students do not have the opportunity to experience this type of event. Help us give them this chance by adding a cotton candy machine to our building. The cotton candy machine will be used at our academic awards celebrations, Red Ribbon Week events, and other times throughout the year. Having these items will also allow us the opportunity to further instruct students about food preparation and event planning.
