Dear Dragons,

As we head into the final week before Spring Break, I want to take a moment to focus on one of our core Dragon Values: Good People.

This has been a long and busy stretch of the school year, and each of you has accomplished a great deal. You should be proud of the effort, growth, and resilience you have shown. At the same time, it is often during these busiest moments—when work is piling up, deadlines are approaching, and energy is running low—that it becomes easiest to lose sight of what it means to be a Good Person.

Being a Good Person is at the heart of who we are as Dragons. It is reflected in the small, everyday choices we make—how we speak to one another, how we respond when things don’t go our way, and how we show up for others in our community.

Being a Good Person means:

• Acting with integrity, even when no one is watching

• Showing kindness and empathy, especially when someone may be struggling

• Being patient and respectful, even in moments of stress or frustration

• Taking responsibility for your actions and the impact they have on others

• Including others and lifting each other up, rather than leaving people out

• Supporting your peers, both inside and outside of the classroom

These are not always the easiest choices—especially when you are busy or tired—but they are the choices that define who we are as a community.

As you move through this final week, I encourage you to be intentional about how you treat those around you. A kind word, a moment of patience, or offering support to a classmate can make a significant difference in someone’s day.

I hope you have a great final week and finish strong. Spring Break is well deserved, and I hope it provides you with time to rest, recharge, and spend meaningful time with friends and family.

When we return, we will be heading into the final stretch of the year—with only two weeks until AP Exams—so taking care of yourselves over the break will be especially important.

Wishing you a strong finish to the week ahead.

Mr. S

Here are some announcements as we enter a new week. 

• Please continue to use our Connecting Language consistently throughout the school day. How we speak to and support one another in classrooms, hallways, and shared spaces matters greatly.
  
  

• Be sure to check the High School Assessment Calendar regularly for updates, upcoming assessments, and any potential schedule adjustments.

• Please remember that reassessment opportunities must follow the established High School reassessment guidelines. Be sure to review the Assessment Calendar carefully for reassessment dates, deadlines, and any applicable requirements.
