Letter from the student body president

Packy Rouse ’26

Boys, the first month of school has gone well. Now it is time to have an even better second month. I hope you all have enjoyed your first few weeks of school and that you are adjusting well to the school year. 

Above all, I encourage you to cherish your time here. Take this new month as an opportunity to enjoy your moments and to be grateful for the opportunity to be on these grounds.

This month we will be challenged more than the month before. It’s essential that we rise to the occasion and push ourselves through these challenges. 

We’re going to be challenged to do more academically. Those of you playing sports will be challenged to compete harder as the season develops. Socially, we’re being challenged to stay and embrace each other, which will be much more difficult as we approach the next phase of the journey. 

We need to take this month as an opportunity to grow stronger as a student body and to support each other. We have done well at this in the first month of school, but we can always do better. I’m very excited to see what is to come, and I hope you all have that same energy. 

Make sure you take advantage of the opportunities this school has to offer if you haven’t done so in the first month.

Make sure you take advantage of the opportunities this school has to offer if you haven’t done so in the first month. Now that we are all settled into school, most opportunities are at your disposal, and it’s not at all too late to take advantage of them. Let’s enjoy ourselves this month and embrace each other.

Go Fords.
