Awards and Recognition

 

AP (Assistant Principal’s) Award

In order to promote effort, behavior, and citizenship that exemplifies our ROAR expectations (Respect, Ownership, Acceptance, Responsibility), the Assistant Principal’s Award is given out each Monday over the Video Journalism announcements.
