As many of you may know, we recently had a loss to our school and community. On Monday morning, Senior, Devin Sovinsky lost his young life. We have shared our deepest condolences and support to the family. Links are included below to see obituary, funeral arrangements, and GoFund Me to support the family during this difficult time.
We understand that losses like this can be difficult for our students to process. We will have a school counselor available today and tomorrow for any students who need to talk through their grief. Students may come and visit from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. today and tomorrow. They may also call the Main Office at 304-243-0400 and ask for the counselor.
