COBRA CONNECTIONS - April 28, 2025

Administrative Professionals Day is a time to recognize and celebrate the administrative assistants who keep our school offices running smoothly and efficiently. We are blessed to work with the best in the business here at Triton. Our administrative assistant group continues to demonstrate excellent organization and communication skills. Their attention to detail is also second to none. We thank them for their continued hard work, support, and leadership.

Student safety and well being will continue to be our number one priority. SpeakUp for Safety is a tipline for students and staff members to share their concerns about bullying, planned fights, students in crisis (suicide, self-harm, drug or alcohol abuse), school violence, and other safety concerns or urgent situations.

SpeakUp is safe and confidential and is available to staff and students 24/7.
