Our 8th grade class is working with the DAV's Field of Flags Project again this year.
DAV’s Field of Flags empowers our community to setup up fields of American flags, all to honor local veterans and raise critical funds to support our ill and injured heroes.
Each flag represents one veteran – and our unwavering commitment to serving all veterans after they’ve sacrificed so much for our country.
All donations raise critical funds to support DAV’s life-changing services for veterans in need and their families.

Hello Parents and Guardians,

We’ll be sharing information about the group with students during their advisory period on Monday, October 13th. This group is completely voluntary and students will be able to sign up on a Google Form. Parent signature will be required to participate. https://forms.gle/3kU35rrUn3feDXvBA
If you feel this group would be helpful for your student, or if you have any questions, please reach out to one of our counselors or our social worker by calling the school at (775) 777-1688.
We’re here to support our students in every way we can.
