6th graders have been learning about the parts of a flower. Today, they dissected a specific type of flower, identifying the different parts and then making their own real diagram. Thank you, Mason Grace Florist, for the flowers!


Last night our long awaited Basketball Homecoming Queen and her court were announced. Senior Emilie Rhyne was crowned Homecoming Queen. Congratulations Emilie!

Thank you to everyone for your patience and for supporting our students during homecoming! #GoRams

Junior Lilyan Landis is a pivotal player for the Lady Rams basketball team. On most nights, Landis pours in anywhere from 10 to 20 points for the Lady Rams, despite just being released from her ACL injury only a few days prior to the first home game. Landis is currently restricted to minutes on the floor, but she is incredibly excited to be back on the court leading the pack.
