As we gear up for a new school year, Principal Shaffer and his team are ready to coach the Stingrays to dream big and score every goal through AVID. The Stingrays aren’t just ready — they’re unstoppable! Watch a video highlighting Showcase Day: https://youtu.be/tDc5aQ0xE7s?si=CLxXc-v9i14pYGp8

📱LET'S TALK CELL PHONES📱
The first day of school is almost here, and now’s a great time to remind your student about the District’s cell phone and wireless device policy and avoid an unexpected trip to campus to retrieve a confiscated device. 😅
ℹ️ During school hours, cell phones, smartwatches, earbuds, and other wireless tech must be off and out of sight.
Here’s what families should know:
📲 Devices that are seen or used during the day will be confiscated.
📲 Only a parent or guardian can pick them up, and only at a time set by school staff.
📲 Repeated offenses constitute insubordination and may result in suspension.
Need to contact your child? Call the school office—we’ll make sure they get the message promptly.
Thanks for helping us create a focused, distraction-free learning environment. Let’s start the year strong, staying present and connected in all the right ways!
