I want to thank all of you for your continued support and commitment to both our students and our school. It has been an exciting season, and the enthusiasm from our fans, both near and far, has been truly remarkable.
I am writing to inform you of a recent decision regarding our attendance policy for football games. After careful consideration, we are adjusting our current attendance restrictions to allow more fans to attend and cheer on our student-athletes. We understand the importance of community and student support, and we want as many of you as possible to experience the energy and excitement of game day.

I want to share an update with you regarding Walker-Winter Elementary School. After thorough consideration of enrollment trends, building capacity, operational costs, and future housing developments, the district has decided not to recommend the closure of Walker Winter Elementary School to the Board of Education. Nearby schools do not have the capacity to absorb the current and anticipated student population, further emphasizing the necessity of keeping Walker-Winter open.
