A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to making our 2024-25 basketball season a success! Our final game of the season took place on February 26, 2025, at Patterson School, and we couldn’t be more proud of our teams.
We especially want to recognize our dedicated coaches, Mr. Gallagher and Mr. Ahmadi, for their time, effort, and commitment. Their guidance has helped our students grow both in skill and love for the game.
A heartfelt thank you also goes out to the incredible volunteers who stepped up to run the clock and support our team behind the scenes. Your help made a world of difference!
Thank you all for an amazing season!

REMINDER !!!!!!!! 2025-2026 RESERVATION FORMS
On February 3, 2025 the district office e-mailed home the annual District Reservation Form to all current students via Informed K12. This form serves two purposes. It tells the school where you intend your child to go to school for 2025-2026 and fulfills the District’s mandated annual residency verification. The deadline to return reservation forms was Friday, February 28, 2025. We will not be handing out the forms in the office; you must respond to the email. If you do not complete this form, your child will not be placed on a class list for next fall. If you have moved please be sure to provide the office with new residency documentation so that we may update our records.
