Students and staff throughout the district came together on May 1 to celebrate College Awareness Day, highlighting the importance of planning for the future and exploring postsecondary opportunities.
Across the district, students, teachers and staff showed their school spirit by wearing apparel representing colleges and universities, creating a vibrant and unified display of pride and aspiration. The day served as an opportunity to encourage conversations about life after graduation and the many pathways available to students.
At the elementary and middle school levels, students participated in age-appropriate discussions and activities focused on future planning. They learned about a variety of postsecondary options, including college, military service and trade schools, while also gaining an understanding of the importance of being lifelong learners.
At the high school, members of the Class of 2026 gathered in the gymnasium to celebrate together, wearing their college shirts and sharing their plans. The event included a group photo capturing the excitement and unity of the senior class.
As part of the celebration, seniors also wrote their names on pawprint cutouts, which were then displayed on the school’s 2026 Decision Day banner, serving as a lasting tribute to their accomplishments and aspirations.
The district remains committed to providing students with the resources and guidance needed to pursue a wide range of postsecondary pathways and to prepare them for success beyond graduation.
