First-Day Morning Assembly
We will begin the semester with a morning assembly in the Yegua Center at 7:40 AM. Students should arrive on time to ensure they do not miss important announcements and updates.
Campus Expectations
Dress Code: The school dress code will be strictly enforced. Please review the guidelines with your student to ensure compliance.
Cell Phones: As a reminder, cell phones are prohibited in classrooms. Students should keep their devices stored away during instructional time.
Vaping Policy: Vapes are strictly prohibited on school property. Students found in violation will face disciplinary actions as outlined in the student code of conduct.
We thank you for your ongoing support in maintaining a safe and respectful learning environment. Please feel free to reach out to the campus office if you have any questions or concerns.
