Happy Senior Year to our class of 2026!
It's time we see them RISE to their final challenges of high school and prepare for their futures. They quite enjoyed Senior Sunrise on Friday morning, heading up the mountains bright and early to enjoy some breakfast and the fresh morning sun. We're lucky it shines only half as bright as our students ☀︎
