ROCKIN RECAP: 🎸🎸Our annual Opening Day ceremony kicked off with a bang as our Rockin Raiders students band fired up the crowd with a special three song set!

The group started off with Smash Mouth's "All Star" followed by Bruno Mars' "Count On Me," before finishing it off with "School of Rock." The final song included a shout out to our many departments and school buildings!

Great job by Evalee, Isaac, Rosalie, Oscar, Connor, Danny, and Colton! 🎸🎸

WELCOME, FRESHMEN: The Class of 2030 were our special guests at the high school yesterday as part of our annual Freshman Orientation!!

Our newest high schoolers spent the morning touring the building, learning about course offerings, and took part in some team building activities, among other experiences.

Major props to our student council leaders who pitched in to not only welcome our freshmen, but guide them throughout the day, too!

We're less than a week away from welcoming everyone back!
