Celebrating Unity and Sportsmanship:
A Fantastic Day at the Unified Basketball Tournament Today, our school was buzzing with excitement, energy, and teamwork as we hosted the highly anticipated Unified Basketball Tournament. The event not only highlighted the incredible athleticism and dedication of our students, but also underscored the importance of inclusivity, unity, and school spirit. It was a day to remember, filled with unforgettable moments, new friendships, and sportsmanship that extended beyond the court.
A Day of Friendly Competition and Teamwork The tournament began with a warm welcome to our visitors from local schools, creating an atmosphere of camaraderie and excitement. Unified Basketball is a unique event where students with and without disabilities come together to compete as teammates, fostering an environment of mutual respect and understanding. Watching our athletes— both students and staff—play together was a powerful reminder of the strength of community and the importance of working as one.
Ending the Day with a Classic Showdown: Students vs. Staff The highlight of the day was, of course, the epic "Students vs. Staff" game that wrapped up the event. The gym was filled with a buzz of anticipation as students cheered on their classmates and teachers. The game itself was full of laughs, impressive moves, and, of course, some friendly trash talk. Whether it was a smooth jump shot or a perfect assist, every moment was met with cheers and applause from the packed stands. While the scoreboard may have had a winner, the real victory was the spirit of inclusion, fun, and respect that everyone brought to the game. In the end, it didn’t matter who scored the most points; what mattered was the celebration of our incredible school community, the joy of sports, and the shared experiences that will last far beyond today.
A Special Thanks to Everyone We want to extend a huge thank you to all of the students, staff, and visitors who made today such a success. Your participation, enthusiasm, and sportsmanship helped make this event memorable for everyone involved. A special thank you also goes out to the coaches, volunteers, and organizers who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure the tournament ran smoothly.

TRANSPORTATION BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL CAREOur Personal Mastery educational experience has redefined education and has gained attention around the state and nation. Personal Mastery provides your child with personalized attention from teachers. Instead of teaching to a broad group of students without an understanding of their individual strengths and weaknesses, Personal Mastery allows teachers to interact with students individually or in small groups to help them better address their weaknesses. In this way, we strive to help your child reach their full potential.
