Sometimes, “girls just wanna have fun!” 🎶
Time spent together off the court is just as important as it is on the court. Wrapping up a successful week of Wildcat Volleyball with a little photo hunt competition! 🏐 thank you to our amazing staff for playing along in our shenanigans!
If you could be a fly on the wall in our AP English literature classroom, you would see and hear the amazing analytical thinking and writing that comes out of these seniors. These are their thoughts from their summer readings of Aldous Huxley's Brave New World, Richard Wright's Black Boy, and Alice Walker's The Color Purple. These students are your future and I couldn't be more proud or confident in the "work" they will do in the world. (Names are blocked out and they gave me permission to share.) #RRproud
