Mr. Cook and Mrs. Meek had a great time and learned SO MUCH at the Early College Summit last week. We were able to get a selfie with Dr. Joe Sanfelippo! He had an incredible message and we are excited for next school year! #LionsLeaveItBetter #gocrickets

One last photo from graduation! Mr. Cook, Mrs. Meek, and Mr. McCartt loved seeing all the students and their families celebrating! Thank you for a great school year and we hope everyone has a great summer!

It wouldn't be official without a selfie from Mr. Cook! Congratulations class of 2025!

During graduation, Mr. Cook led a moment of silence in remembrance of Tanner Harrison. Tanner is a part of this class's journey and will forever live in our hearts. If you remember, we asked for bottle caps last year to be able to create bottle cap benches for classmates we have lost, Tanner Harrison (Class of 2025) and Valerie Tindall (Class of 2024). The benches were on display at graduation. These benches will have plaques added to them for identification and we are working to landscape an area near the school to create a space where students can reflect, gather, and remember. This project was coordinated by Dana Durbin. Carter Barnes, Adrian Apodaca, and Izzy Pavey assisted Dana in carrying out her vision.

Congratulations to the Class of 2025 Valedictorian, Heidi Stanley, and Salutatorian, Trisha Morgan! Photos by C&R Photography Studios
