Greetings High School students, parents, and the community! We sincerely hope you are all doing well through this interesting time in our lives.  We miss you all!! This is my first experience creating a blog page so please bear with me.  I am very much not a technology person so hang in there as I learn new skills and add content to this page that I hope you will find useful.  

 Please feel free to check into the blog to say hi, leave a comment, or an idea on what you would like to see on this page.  Leave your own message about what things you have been doing to keep busy- give us all ideas... what's a good book you've read, is there a new series on Netflix that is exciting, have a new hobby, or an awesome recipe for us to try?? Please share :-)

 In the upcoming weeks we will be adding resources, messages, photographs and different exciting things to challenge us all to take positive steps in our lives.   Mr. Pepin and I will be working on the blogs together, one for the Jr. High and one for the Sr. High.

 If you would like to talk to either of us personally please send us an email and we will get back to you however you desire (phone, text, video chat, etc.). We'd love to hear from you!!
