    A NOTE FROM OUR ADMINISTRATION

    Dear Dragon Family:


    Thank you for an incredible school year! We wanted to share some of the photos from Tuesday’s Senior Walkabout with you - it’s one of our favorite traditions we look forward to every year. Thank you to all who joined us to celebrate our Class of 2024 on Friday. The graduation ceremony was very special and we are so proud of all of our seniors.
