Florence JR/SR High School -

Message from Mrs. Camper

Greetings Husky Families!  

Happy February!

As we move into the second month of the year, I want to take a moment to express my gratitude for the continued support and engagement from our school community. We are excited to keep building on the momentum of the first semester and are looking forward to the opportunities and events February brings. Be on the look out for announcements about school ski trips and college tour opportunities.

Our winter sports teams are in full swing, and we encourage everyone to come out and support our athletes. Check the school website or follow us on social media for event schedules and updates. We also have several extracurricular activities continuing this month—there’s always something exciting happening here at Florence Jr/Sr High School.

This month, we are emphasizing kindness and school spirit, as part of our ongoing efforts to foster a positive and supportive environment for all students. I encourage you to have conversations with your child about the importance of kindness and how they can contribute to making our school a welcoming and respectful place for everyone. We are also asking all students to wear their Husky gear or club shirt on Thursdays.

As always, thank you for being such an integral part of our school community.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments at 719-784-6414 or email to kcamper@re-2.org .

Warm wishes,

Mrs. Krissi Camper
