I can’t tell you enough," said superintendent, Dr. Timothy Edsell. Last Wednesday, Boltz was told by a student that another student had brought a gun onto the bus inside a backpack.

PART OF SENIOR PARKING LOT CLOSED FOR PAVING ON 8/16/2023 Just wanted to make sure you are aware that tomorrow morning our new parking lot will be getting paved. This will require the construction crew to move their fencing, block an entrance on the northwest roundabout and block out some existing parking spaces to allow for the paving to occur correctly. Please see the map below for details. Students who have a space impacted by this must park in a non-senior designated area in the lots by door 7, door 4, or the tennis courts. Students can still access the parking lots via the roundabout but you have to use the second exit, not the first (see map below). The good news is the new lot will be ready for student and staff use this coming Monday August 21. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
