Back in May, a few of our students auditioned for the All-State Children's Chorus. Of all the students who auditioned in the state, Lillyana Breckenridge was one of the chosen to perform at the Ohio Music Education Association Professional Development Conference in January! 🎶 AND this will be her second year in a row with this prestigious invitation 🤩 We are SO proud!

🇺🇸 Remembering 9/11 🇺🇸
This morning, we were honored to hear our very own Cadet Mackinsey McMillen speak on 9/11. We also stopped by Mr. Altman’s history class, where students received a powerful lesson on that tragic day.

'Together, we remember 9/11—honoring the past, and carrying its lessons forward. Today and always, we honor the lives lost, the heroes who served, and the resilience of our nation.**
