Gearing Up for Summer School
Spring may have just started, but we already have summer (school) on our mind. Students and families will recall a previous announcement that 2021 summer school courses will be offered in one of two formats: remote or in-person. To help us determine each courses’ format, we need students who have already registered for summer school to complete this survey by April 9 and indicate their desire to return to campus for summer school or learn remotely.
Students who have not yet registered for summer school still have time to register and can do so by visiting this webpage.

Yearbook Order Deadline Extended
Good news to any Patriot families who may have missed their opportunity to order this year’s yearbook! The deadline for ordering yearbooks has been extended to May 7. The cost of ordering is $50 and can be done through Josten’s website. We will be distributing the yearbooks May 25-27!
