Vikings!

       Congratulations to our Lady Vikings for their effort through the entire basketball season.  Despite having just six players, they came out and competed each game. We are proud of our ladies.
    Congratulations to the Gentleman Vikings for winning the Sumter County Middle School Basketball Championship!!!  It was a great contest and our gentleman showed character, heart, and skill.  Good job to Coach Helton and Coach Cabbagestalk.  Special thanks to our very supportive and enthusiastic parents who attended most, if not, all of the games this season. 
        Our students are not just excelling in sports.  We have many academic successes to celebrate as well.  Our students improved on their Standardized Benchmark Test from a absolute value score of 2.51, which is  "Below Average" in the first quarter to an absolute value rating score of 2.81, which is an "Average" rating in the second quarter.  This is EXCELLENT growth!!  I appreciate the parental support for our school initiatives.  We are on track for reaching our goal to be a school of academic and character excellence.

Seek excellence--Work hard--Observe rules and procedures--Respect self and others--Do the right thing
