Colorful blocks of information for the week of Feb. 2-6
 

Dear Trojan Families,

A snowy parking lot with tire tracks leads towards a building under a clear blue sky.
After a week and a day of snow days, we’re excited to have our students back on campus and ready to learn starting Tuesday. It will be a great week of learning and connection, culminating with our Trojans Love Reading event on Friday, Feb. 6. We also have an exciting week of basketball ahead, with our JV and Varsity Trojans facing off against local rivals Lakeside and Lake Hamilton. We can’t wait to see our students return refreshed, focused, and ready to make every day count!

Make-up Days β„οΈπŸ«

We have truly missed our students during the extraordinary weather event last week and can’t wait to welcome them back tomorrow.

To make up the five missed days from last week, school will be in session on February 18–20, April 24, and May 22, using the days already built into the 2025–2026 school calendar. A sixth make-up date will be announced later.

Thank you to our families for your patience and flexibility. We’re looking forward to getting back to learning together.
