The Drought is over!!
The football team has earned the right to host a playoff game on Saturday night here at Alumni Field at 7 p.m. They will face Warren J.F.K. High School. Please come out and help cheer on the team to hopefully its first playoff victory in a very long time! This is the team’s first playoff appearance since 2010, and it’s our first time hosting a playoff game in football in at least a decade (if not longer.)

Your Association at work. Did you know?
Graduating Senior Awards. In ten years our Association has given 17 Graduating Senior Awards totaling $7,600.00. In 2009 the Association awarded $100.00 to one student. In 2016 and 2017, we awarded $500.00 each to two students ($1,000.00 per year). A ten-fold annual increase.

Each year the Association selects and recognizes a past or present Educator of Excellence at a noon luncheon in the High School.
