The Past 4 Years.......
The accomplishments listed below are the results
of TEAMWORK: There is no "I" in "TEAMWORK".
Teamwork is the ability to work together
toward a common vision and the ability to
direct individual accomplishments toward our
organizational educational objectives. Last
school year our team initiated a yearly report
to the community, which was published in the
local paper. The
2006-07 Annual Report and the
2007-2008 Annual Report compile student and
staff success, events, community service,
fiscal reports and assessments over the past two
years.
