Current EventsElizabeth Ferguson, a physical education and health teacher, is under scrutiny from the administration after rumors (later confirmed) were spread of her using racial slurs in the classroom, as well as unconfirmed rumors of attempted romantic contact with students. The new school is still under construction, as the sports field has not yet been completed. There has been controversy over the field's composition of astroturf, as the idea was shut down in 2017 by Ashby. According to the school, however, they "found the money," in their budget to install the field anyway. The Administration is currently cracking down on students vaping in the school, with help from the Board of Health. These new preventative measures include one hundred dollar fines for students caught in the act of vaping on school property, or found to be in possession of any e-cigarette products, as well as bag searches with probable cause by the school resource officer. However, suspensions have ended as punishments for this. Principal Isaac Taylor is known to be leaving at the end of the 2019 school year to become Principal of Belmont High School. His replacement is unknown, but it is between two potential candidates.
