2025-2026 SIC Report to Parents

The latest SIC (School Improvement Council) Report to Parents is shared to keep families informed about our school’s progress, goals, and accomplishments. Thank you for your continued partnership—together, we are supporting every Jaguar’s success!

Leading with Care: Thank You, Ridgeland Fire Department

We extend our sincere appreciation to the Ridgeland Fire Department for partnering with us to host a powerful Prom Promise demonstration for our scholars. Your team’s willingness to lead, educate, and engage with our students is a true reflection of your commitment to the safety and well-being of our community’s children. This experience left a lasting impression and reinforced the real-life importance of making responsible decisions.

As we approach prom, we encourage all of our students to honor the Prom Promise by choosing to remain sober throughout the event. Prom is a milestone worth celebrating—and it can be just as memorable, exciting, and meaningful without the presence of alcohol or other substances. Making safe choices ensures that everyone can enjoy the night and return home safely.

Thank you again to the Ridgeland Fire Department for being a trusted partner and a strong example of community leadership.

We Love our Assistant Principals!!!

Spring break may have delayed us, but our appreciation is right on time! This week we’re celebrating our incredible Assistant Principals and the vital role they play in making our school a great place to learn and grow. Ms. Broughton, Ms. Calloway, and Mr. McNeely, thank you for all you do!

TESTING STARTS DAILY AT 9:00 AM.
