Wildcat News
Dear Wildcat Families!
As we wrap up another incredible school year, we want to take a moment to celebrate all the memories, milestones, and moments that made this year so special. Yesterday marked the last day for our students, and while the halls may be a little quieter now, the energy and spirit of our school community remain strong.
In this final edition of our newsletter, we’re excited to share two fantastic videos highlighting our seniors and created by our talented Video Communications students. From planning to filming to editing, they’ve poured their creativity and hard work into these projects—be sure to check them out!
Thank you for being part of our journey this year. Have a safe, relaxing, and joyful summer. We look forward to welcoming many of you back in August!
Go Wildcats!

School Nurse News: Parents Need To Be Present to Sign Students Out of School
Important Reminder:
Do not send your child to school if he or she is ill. Staying home to get the proper rest, nutrition, and parental care is for your child's benefit as well as for the benefit of the other children in the school who may be unnecessarily exposed to a contagious illness. The following are examples of when a student should remain home:
- A temperature greater than or equal to 100 degrees Fahrenheit. The student must be fever-free without the use of fever-reducing medication for 24 hours (a complete school day) before returning to school.
- Actively vomiting or has diarrhea
- Severe uncontrolled coughing or wheezing, rapid or difficult breathing, and coughing lasting longer than five to seven days.

Broken and Damaged Chromebooks
We have observed a significant increase in the number of damaged Chromebooks and broken styluses this year. This issue is becoming critical, and we risk running out of devices for our students.
Please address this issue with your children and monitor how they handle their Chromebooks. Remember, students and their parents signed a form accepting financial responsibility for any damage or loss. While some incidents may be accidental, others, such as missing protective shells or intentional damage, could be considered negligence or vandalism, respectively. Â In that case, parents may have to pay for the damage. Â The warranty company is beginning to question the warranty tickets that we are submitting and not always providing us replacements.
Your vigilance and communication with students are crucial in mitigating this problem. We also welcome any feedback from students that could help us address this issue more effectively.
Thank you for your cooperation.
New Stylus Replacement Procedure
Parents order a replacement stylus on the PTA website.
Parents send their receipts from the PTA to the school supply office. If they unregistering from our school they can present the receipt to the registrar for release of their records.
If the student is not unregistering from our school, the supply clerk will issue the student a replacement stylus from our reserves. We have a small supply of extra styluses.
PTA will bulk order the replacement styluses at the end of the school year and give them to our supply clerk.
*It is important to order the exact model, as other model styluses may not work or fit in the charging garage available on our Chromebooks.
**Styluses can be ordered directly from HP, but HP does not deliver to PO boxes.
