The Senior Night Posters have been rolling in all week to promote that THIS Friday is the Winter Athlete Senior Night!!
Here is some important information for parents and families:
The Freshman game starts at 4:30, the JV game will immediately follow. It is difficult to give exact times of when the JV and Varsity games will start, so come early and get your seats. The Seniors and their parents walking need to meet in Mrs. Perkin's room at the JV 4th quarter to get instructions. Then the Seniors and parents will be presented right BEFORE the Varsity warm up.
Tomorrow night is such an exciting and emotional night, we can't wait to pack our gym!!
High school ELA teacher Ms. Reschke has been taking her 11th graders to the library for research projects. The students realized today that you are never too old to enjoy circle time and picture books!
