Principal’s Message

This is only a four day week for students and also the last school week of the 2025-2026 3rd quarter. There is no school for students on Friday, March 13 and March 16-20 will be our spring break. For those students who took PMA 3 last week, we will have your results soon after spring break. Teachers will provide students with a performance analysis as we prepare for end-of-year testing in April and May. 

I want to take a moment to recognize an incredible group of students, the Class of 2026 Top 20 (photo below). It has been a lot of fun highlighting these students and this week we will announce our Salutatorian and Valedictorian. Stay tuned for the top 4 students this week!

Also, I want to congratulate the members of Bravethon who raised $18,457.35 throughout this school year for Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children--Central Florida's only Level 1 Pediatric Trauma Center. The total was unveiled this past Friday night at the Main Event.

Braves, while we know spring break is heavy on your mind, please take advantage of these upcoming four instructional days. Continue to put forth your best efforts each day and keep up your momentum through the last bell on Thursday. 

Forever Brave,

 

Hector Maestre, Ed.D.
Principal
