Hello Yellow Jackets!
We’re officially in summer mode! As I reflect, I can see this past school year was a good one.
Our state-qualifying athletes gave us a great reason to celebrate our Jacket Pride of individuals Josie Davis (wrestling), Keaton Fischer (bowling), Garrett Guinther (track), and Jarrett Payne (swimming). We saw outstanding academic achievement in Tatum Werntz being named one of 18 state winners of the American Legion Americanism & Government Test, which took her on an amazing trip to Washington, D.C. Our academia team took back the Shelby County title again. We saw outstanding achievement by students competing in Business Professionals of America. BPA members who placed in State: Brooklyn Koester, Grace Work-Steenrod, Ivan Spencer, and Parker Slaven. BPA members who placed in State and qualified for Nationals: Thomas Sibert, Ethan Weldy, Joshua Wise, and Danny Orr. Gilbert Quiantance qualified for nationals only.
Our music department saw its success in a very large musical that included students as young as 3rd grade! The concerts both in the winter and spring were some of the best I have heard, and the contest results in all areas were positive.
An expansion of Key Club into middle school with the addition of Builder’s Club allowed more students to serve in our community. These are just a few of the outstanding things that happened this school year.
Our administrative team and teachers will spend the summer preparing to make the 2023-2024 school year even better. Thank you to our families for their continued support.
Be sure to check out our Back-to-School Hub to get ready for the upcoming school year!
In Jacket Pride,
Bob Humble, Superintendent
