5 4/1/2026
I''ve remained close friends with classmates and students from the classes above and below me. The academics and athletics are strong, but what really stands out is the community. Teachers, coaches, security guards, and the maintenance crew all genuinely care, take the time to connect with you, and play a meaningful role in your success.
