Principal's reflections on the Class of 2022:

The Class of 2022 maximized every opportunity as they returned to in-person school full time. They have served as the leaders of our building, encouraging all students to engage in and out of the classroom throughout the school year. Their legacy will be felt for years to come.

-- Principal Daniel Krause
