Can you believe it’s a new year, Titans? January is already here and with that brings the close of the semester and the beginning of a new semester. We also get to start watching our boys play basketball! Good luck, boys!
Parents, remember to watch the calendar for January as we’ve got a late start day on the 8th, no school on the 10th, start of third quarter on the 13th, no school on the 20th and an early out on the 22nd. This month will fly by, that’s for sure. Students, please be sure to check with your teachers before the end of the quarter and do all that you can do to get the best grades possible.
One thing I love about January is setting New Year’s resolutions. What a great time to stop and think about a goal you might want to set—maybe doing a little better in math. Maybe you want to set a goal to finish your homework every day by 4:00. Maybe your goal is to eat a little healthier each day or to exercise every day. Whatever your goal might be, I encourage you to set a goal to become a better version of yourself—and then STICK WITH IT! Titans, we have a great school. I sure appreciate being your principal—as always…it’s a great day to be a TITAN!

Volleyball Congratulations to the Orion Titan Volleyball Team, under the leadership of our 3 captains, Nicole Anderson, Renae Davis and Lindsey Edmunds, had a tremendous season going 8-0 in district play. Then the team beat Snowcrest in the first round of play-offs before falling to Wahlquist in 5 sets. It was an awesome season, just without the ‘dream ending.’ And as back court specialist Emma Harris mentioned “our team is our trophy.”
