We are excited to see our students and families at Open House on August 7 from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Due to construction, parking is limited. Please review the flier for information about parking availability. Due to extremely limited parking, we are requesting that only high school students and their families attend Open House. We want to ensure our Brahmans have the ability to visit campus for Open House. If you are unable to attend Open House or want to avoid the crowds, student schedules will be available during the day for pickup in the office on Thursday, August 7 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.




Attention Junior and Senior Parents! Have your student check their email for important parking information that was sent out last week. Parking for Juniors and Seniors will take place this Thursday. Senior parking sales are August 7 from 9:00-11:15. Juniors and Seniors can purchase a spot from 1:00 - 3:00. We will NOT sale parking during Open House. The attached flier has links to the documents, which can be accessed via the email. See you all soon.


Good afternoon. This morning a staff member used their Centegix badge to trigger a lockdown on campus. The school followed lockdown procedures. At no point were students and staff in danger. We are thankful for the quick response of our students, staff, and SROs to maintain school safety.
