This week we celebrate our school counselors who support, guide, and advocate for our students every single day. Thank you for being a listening ear, a trusted mentor, and a constant source of encouragement. Our school is better because of you! π«

As our school community continues to heal following the difficult loss we experienced on Friday, school counselors and our crisis response team will be available from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Monday at the high school for any student who may need additional support.
The 2024-2025 yearbooks have just been delivered and are now at the high school, ready for pickup!
Please stop by the high school office during regular hours to grab yours. Spread the word and come get them! π

Being a School Resource Officer is about so much more than safety. Itβs about being a mentor, a listener, and a friendly face in the hallway. Whether they are directing traffic, checking in on a student, or just cracking a joke at lunch, Jonas and Zach make Crete High a better place to be.
Thank you both for your dedication, your patience, and your service to our students and staff. We appreciate you!
Drop a comment below to say thanks or share a favorite memory with Officer Jonas or Officer Zach! π

Since 2006 this NSAA Awards Program has recognized students who meet the criteria for nomination by their school in the season of their activity.
Each year the NSAA and the NCPA recognize students during Fall, Winter, and Spring Seasons who are nominated by their schools for their individual academic excellence, leadership, and significant contributions in their NSAA activity.
Congrats to the Crete Cardinals that were selected! #CardinalPride
