JH/HS Announcements:



Happy Martin Luther King Day - thank you Ms. Unnique for sharing these pictures:







Athletes of the Week
Varsity - Kevin Nevland. With recent injuries Kevin saw a bump in playing time and performed well for the team. He proved to be an asset off the bench and came in with energy providing good defensive rotation and spark. Keep it up Kevin.
JV - Evan has been a spark of energy all year and continues to be a leader on the court for JV. He works hard every day in practice and continues to see success as a top scorer for the team.


HECTOR of the Week
JH - Hunter Tomlin - Hunter has been a great addition to our school this year. He has a positive attitude and is very respectful. He shows excellence in his school work and in sports. Hunter works very hard on everything he does. We are proud of how Hunter displays HECTOR in our school."
HS - Isaiah Abdulla- he's always helpful and a great kid to have in class. He's trying to make the best of his last semester and we appreciate it!
Staff - Karina Northern, She works hard in teaching her students and makes sure that the students' needs are addressed. She's available whenever the school needs someone to fill in a class. Her ability to connect with the students and create a welcoming, supportive environment is truly inspiring. 'Thank you for all the hard work and care you put into your role every day.'
