Today we held off our annual Service Rally! 💚 Students had the opportunity to learn about the powerful story behind Laps for Lymphoma and why this event means so much to our school community. We were honored to hear from our guest speaker, Mr. Cade Stevenson, a teacher at Hugo Owens Middle School, who shared his personal journey after being diagnosed with lymphoma at the age of 12. His story was a powerful reminder of resilience, hope, and the impact we can make when we come together for a cause.
We also heard from five different clubs who will each be sponsoring a day during Service Week (March 23–27), giving students many opportunities to give back and support others in our community. The week will culminate with Laps for Lymphoma on March 28!
Be sure to register using the link on GoFan and join us as we make a difference together.

This Black History Month, students took learning beyond the classroom and into the kitchen! 🧑🏾🍳✨
Students learned how to make the original mac and cheese recipe inspired by James Hemings, trained chef who introduced macaroni and cheese to America after studying culinary arts in France.
Hemings’ influence on American cuisine is still felt today, and this hands-on experience gave students a chance to connect history, culture, and creativity in a delicious way.
Celebrating Black history means honoring contributions in every space, including the kitchen. 🖤
