Our 25-26 Leadership Retreat allotted us time to reflect as we continue to Grow Greatness for the upcoming school year. We took time to learn about the best in ourselves, while bringing out the best in our team. We are ready to do the work and the glass is half full!

Richmond artist Matt Lively transformed our gym with a stunning Cardinal mural this past week! Our student reporters had the amazing opportunity to ask Matt all about his artistic process and inspiration. We are absolutely in love with the new mural that brightens up our gym!
