Good Day! I want to welcome our new students and staff at SLA and welcome back to our returning students and staff. The 2022-23 school year is officially here. We are excited that you have chosen SLA and are part of the RAM family. Thank you for being a part of our school and community. It is the people that make a difference in our school and I am so glad to be a part of this organization.

For those of you that do not know me my name is Mark Yockus and I am the returning Principal of SLA. In fact, I was the first Principal of SLA when SLA opened its doors to start our school in 2012-13. After ten years it is great to return. I have 22 years’ experience as a school principal within 3 districts / organizations. My principal experience is very well diversified as a public school principal, CTE school principal, homeless school principal, alternative school principal, private school principal, and charter school principal. I have served as principal for both middle and high schools.

Our faculty, staff and administration are committed to providing a quality learning experience for all students. Our focus as educators will be to continue preparing students for college and careers. If you are a SLA student your future matters! Here is what SLA has to offer:

Flexible schedules. Credit recovery. Even early graduation. We’re a high school made for you. Caring teachers and mentors meet you where you are, empowering you to redefine what’s possible for your success – in and beyond high school. We create extraordinary opportunities and outcomes for our students, our families and our community.

Best wishes for a dynamic and purposeful 2022-23 school year.

GO RAMS!

Mark A. Yockus – Principal
