Friday, Dec. 23 will be the first day of holiday break for the Mountain Lions.

Break leads up to Christmas into the new year, and students shall return on Tuesday, Jan. 3.

Eighth grade math teacher Jason Jones said, “I believe break is long enough for students to re-energize.”

Christmas break is something everyone looks forward to and is finally here!

“Christmas break is a great time to spend with my family and friends,” said Jones.

School will return as normal on Jan. 3, and students are encouraged to set new goals.

Jones said, “I am excited to return for the new year because it is a fresh start for students as far as their grades.”

The holiday break is a recovery for everyone to gather themselves, so make the new year count and push yourself!
