What a wonderful second week of Wayfinders!

Last week, our Wayfinders focused on Charting a Course, thinking about where they want to go as readers, writers, and learners. Students reflected on their reading strengths, explored assessment data, and began setting goals for the journey ahead.

One of the highlights of the week was our adventure to Silver Springs State Park. Students experienced Florida's natural beauty aboard the famous glass-bottom boats, explored the park's history and ecosystems, and continued learning about the stories that shape our understanding of Florida.

A special thank you to the Florida Defenders of the Environment for sponsoring this field experience and helping make this unforgettable adventure possible for our students.

We're proud of the growth, curiosity, and community we've seen over the first two weeks of Wayfinders, and we can't wait to see where Week 3 takes us!

Summer Blue Wave athletics are already underway!

Many of our fall sports begin conditioning and activities before students return to campus, so now is the time to get cleared and connected with coaches.

✅ ALL student-athletes must complete the 2026-27 Athletic Clearance application and be fully cleared BEFORE participating.
