And just like that, the 2024-2025 school year comes to a close.
This year has an awesome year, and one for the history books! Congratulations to our most graduates, Class of 2025. You will be missed next year, but we cannot wait to see how you use the BEAR values on the next part of your journeys to change the world.
While the campus stays busy with activity, our office hours do change for the summer. Offices are open Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:30-11:30 and 1:00-4:00 with limited staff. Also teachers will return at the end of July, so please know that any emails sent will not be answered until the start of next school year.
I pray that all of you have a restful and relaxing summer break. I hope you find joy with whatever you choose to do in the next few weeks, and as an English teacher at heart, I would be remiss if I did not encourage everyone to find a good book to read.
Our next Bluff Bulletin will come out right before school starts at the end of July. Thank you all for being part of our Bear Family this year. Make good choices, and always Go Bears!

IDs and Dress Code
Our Dress Code is listed below, and a great visual reminder was created by one of our teachers is referenced to the right.
IDs are part of our school dress code and are issued to all students and staff and are expected to be visibly worn on a lanyard around the neck during the school day.
Please consider these guidelines when purchasing Back to School clothes. While our first concern is that students remain in class, students who consistently defy the dress code will have consequences beginning with calling a parent or guardian to bring other clothing to school and ending with possible ISS for not following school rules.
All lunchroom balances must be paid off each month. Balances carry over year to year. It is also important to remember that you are unable to walk at graduation without having a $0 balance. If you have any questions, please feel free to give us a call. Below is the link to look at your personalized MyPaymentPlus account.
Is your student 16? If so, they MUST have the Meningitis Booster.
Reminder: All Immunization MUST be up-to-date. If you have a student turning 16 they are due an immunization that must be on file at the school.
