Dear Students, Parents, and Guardians,
While there is still work to be done on the 3-12 campus, we are excited to host an open house for students, parents, and guardians on Monday, January 8th. We will open the doors on January 8th from 12:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. Hopefully, this will allow you to plan a time that will be convenient for you.
A driveway and parking layout is available by clicking the link below. For the open house, please access the campus through the main driveway off RL McDougald Drive. There will be three parking lots available for you to park for the open house. Please use parking lot B, C, or D. We ask that you enter the building through either the main elementary school entrance or the main middle school/high school entrance. Those entrances are near parking lot C and D, and there are cast stone signs directly above those entrances.
Don’t forget to review the layout available by clicking the link below. We look forward to welcoming you to our new school.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Albritton
Superintendent

3-12 Open House Information
December 29, 2023
Dear Students, Parents, and Guardians,
As we approach the beginning of the second semester of the 2023-2024 school year, I know you have questions and concerns about our move into our new school. Our teachers will be returning on January 3rd with several days to prepare for the return of students on January 10th. While there is still work to be done on the 3-12 campus, we will be excited to host an open house for students, parents, and guardians on January 8th. We will open the doors on January 8th at 12:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. Hopefully, this will allow you to plan a time that will be convenient for you. A more formal announcement of the open house is forthcoming. We will also provide a driveway and parking layout in the coming days. In general, the buses and employees will utilize the driveway off of East Main Street. Our student drivers and parents will access the campus through the driveway off of RL McDougald Drive.
Once our new campus is closer to final completion, we plan to host a community event to include a ribbon cutting ceremony and an open house for the community. We will provide a more formal announcement once that date is set.
I am grateful for the support and excitement you have shown for our new school, and I can’t wait for everyone to get a chance to see it. I hope you continue to enjoy the holidays, and we look forward to welcoming our students back on January 10th.
Respectfully,
Jennifer Albritton
Superintendent
