Just a friendly reminder to take a quick look at your student's lunch account balance.
If your student has been eating breakfast and/or lunch at school, now is great time to check their balance and add funds if needed. Keeping accounts up to date helps our food service program continue to run smoothly.
You can check you student's balance or make a payment through your Skyward Family Access account.

Teen Skills meets every Saturday at Cambria Park for hands-on activities, community projects, leadership skills, and plenty of fun along the way!
Unified PE brings our students together every day to build connections through sports and fun.
This semester, Mrs. Emrick’s 8th-hour PE class paired up with Mrs. Miller’s class to launch our new Unified PE program. Whether playing class favorites like sharks and minnows or taking center stage at the Homecoming pep session to lead the entire student body in the Cha Cha Slide, these student pairs have shown us what true inclusion looks like.
Thank you to our amazing students and staff for making this experience so special!
