Our school theme is “Connected” with our verse of “I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.“–John 15:1-5.
Chapel offerings will go to LeadaChild for 1st quarter.

Chromebooks – Make sure your student is charging their laptops every night. Students are unable to charge their Chromebooks while at school, so it is important they are charging them while at home.
Religion – Make sure your student is bringing their Bibles and Luther’s Small Catechism to school.
Tests/Quizzes – Make sure your student is holding onto their tests and quizzes for each class, they are good study tools for the finals in December.
