Our renovation is moving along quickly and we expect to have most of it complete before the students return in September. I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved in this massive project. The students and parents, in particular, have been very understanding about the disruptions to normal operations. At some point this fall we will announce an open house for the public to view the new building.

Our fall activities are in full swing and, even though most of the building is still off limits to students and staff, we have made arrangements to keep the inconveniences to these groups to a minimum.

Staffing has been completed for the upcoming year and our class schedule is almost set. Please note the articles elsewhere in this newsletter in reference to two new initiatives—the Raider Rally period and the Zero Period.
