What a night for our Lady Vikings!
The gym was packed, the energy was high, and our team delivered an unforgettable Senior Night. We celebrated three incredible seniors: Lyla Hamblin, Ashley Harkins, and Brynleigh Morrow. They were surrounded by proud families and a sea of pink for Pink Out night.
And talk about a milestone moment… congratulations to Lyla Hamblin for reaching 500 digs and kills! What an amazing accomplishment and a true reflection of hard work and heart.
Thank you, seniors, for leading with passion and pride. You’ve set the standard for what it means to be a Viking!

Reality hit differently yesterday — in the best way!
Our eighth-grade and sophomore students took part in Reality U, a hands-on financial literacy event that turns learning into real-world decision-making. Each student was given a mock career, salary, and family scenario, then had to make choices about housing, transportation, childcare, groceries, insurance, and even a few fun extras. It didn’t take long for everyone to realize how fast a paycheck can disappear!
Reality U helps teens see how their effort in school today can shape their financial future. It gives them a chance to practice smart money management and understand the value of planning ahead.
A huge thank you to our incredible sponsors:
Kim Wuertz – GSSB Bank
Justin Hobbs – Patriots Bank
Amanda Bures & Brent Rodina – Keller Williams Realty
Your generosity and partnership made this event possible and helped bring financial literacy to life for our students.
And a special shoutout to all of the volunteers who gave their time and energy to help guide students through the simulation. You made learning fun, engaging, and memorable. Thank you for making a difference!
