Our Freshman Academy students headed to the University of Louisville this week to get a firsthand look at campus life and explore the postsecondary opportunities waiting for them.
From touring the grounds to hearing about academic programs, our Chargers are already dreaming big and planning for life after graduation. It’s never too early to start building that path to success! 🎓🐎

✅ REMINDER | There is no school for students this Friday, April 3. Friday is a Professional Development Flex Day for staff. Students are also off April 6-10 for Spring Break.

Before you head into vacation mode, make sure to read Mr. Durham’s Parent Update! We still have plenty of high-level learning and important events happening on campus this week.
It isn't Spring Break yet—let’s finish this week strong and stay informed! 💪🎓

Mr. Mason’s Geometry class took a break from the standard grid to play a classic game of Battleship! This wasn't just for fun—it was a hands-on way to scaffold and reinforce the vital role of the x & y axes.
By "plotting their shots," students are:
✅ Mastering coordinate planes
✅ Promoting strategic thinking
✅ Sharpening mathematical accuracy
✅ Building collaboration skills
Who knew "You sunk my battleship!" could be such a win for math literacy? 📈⚡️

Our JTown Student Ambassadors headed over to Carrithers Middle School for an incredible Charger Day! They spent the day leading hands-on learning activities with 7th-grade Explore students, giving them a real look at what it’s like to be part of our Career Academies.
Our students led the way in:
🩺 Health Science – Patient care and medical simulations.
🛠️ Build & Design – Focusing on engineering and essential skilled trade skills.
💼 Business – Entrepreneurship and professional leadership.
We also hosted a Lunch and Learn session where Carrithers students could ask our ambassadors anything and everything about the high school experience—from classes and clubs to what it's really like to be a JTown Charger. 🗣️
We love seeing our ambassadors step up as mentors and share their passions with the next generation. Big thanks to the Carrithers staff and students for having us! 🩵🩶
