Families with children birth through age 5—now is the time to schedule a preschool screening.

Why PreK?
Preschool helps children build early learning skills, develop socially and emotionally, and prepares them for future success in school and beyond.

Grow, explore, and discover with us.

Congratulations to our 2nd Quarter Honor Roll students. Your commitment to learning is something to be proud of.

We also want to recognize all of our Bulldogs who worked hard, pushed through challenges, and continued to grow this quarter. Progress comes in many forms,and that’s what makes us Bulldog STRONG.

It's Game Day! Our JV/V Lady Bulldog basketball teams travel to Selmaville for action this evening. The JV game tips-off at 6:00 followed by the varsity.

From tip-off to buzzer, play STRONG!

Thank you to a member of the Class of 1986 for their $500 donation to The Final Push. Their support helps us move closer to raising the roof on a new gym for the community children.
