We love our Senior Spotlights! They will continue to run through this week. If your senior hasn't appeared, don't worry, it's coming!!!

Melissa Feroli and Senior Sponsor Amber Findley coordinate with seniors and parents to proof and approve all information. David Hilger provides important tech support. Finally, thank you Senior parents for your support and help. We look forward to joining with you to celebrate our seniors the next two weeks!
