Happy Friday, Panther Families!

Yesterday marked the completion of our final SOL assessment of the school year! We are incredibly proud of our students for their hard work, perseverance, and determination throughout testing season. Only make-up assessments and retakes remain, and if your child qualifies for a retake, it means they are extremely close to passing. Please continue encouraging them to stay focused and finish strong. Thank you for your unwavering partnership and support every step of the way!

Tonight at 5:30 p.m., the excitement begins as our BOYS’ and GIRLS’ Basketball Teams take on Carson Middle School in the Basketball Showdown right here in our school gym! Our Panthers need your energy, spirit, and loudest cheers as we come together for an unforgettable evening celebrating school pride and community.  And don’t forget — it’s a BLACKOUT! Wear BLACK and help us pack the stands with Panther Pride!  Come out, cheer loud, represent Langston Hughes, and help us make this an electric night for our students and school community!

Also, please join us on Wednesday, May 20th, at 5 p.m., for the National Junior Honor Society Induction (NJHS) Ceremony, as we celebrate the outstanding achievements and leadership of our students.

Then, on Thursday, May 21st, at 7 p.m., our Drama Department will present its Theater Showcase — and trust us, you are in for an incredible performance!

Stay connected! Please review the remaining school events and activities listed below.  The end is near!
