From The Desk of Principal Mayberry- Congratulations: Commitment to Graduate - 2018, 9th graders commit to graduate!! On January 8, the class of 2018 made a commitment to graduate from high school. Jostens made a brief presentation on the value of a high school diploma. The students were then challenged to make one commitment that will put them on track to graduate. They made that commitment to one of the Administrative team and it was sealed with a handshake. Once the commitment was made the students signed their names to the 2018 Commitment to Graduate Banner that will hang in the cafeteria until their graduation reminding them of their personal commitment. Each student also received a bright green bracelet with the same reminder. Football: Congratulations to the following football players for making the 2014 American Family Insurance All-USA Arizona Division IV team.
