Cold and flu season is here and it is important that we work together to keep our children healthy. Viruses/Common Colds spread easily among children in schools, and families with school-aged children have more infections than others. Help prevent the spread of flu and the common cold by following these simple procedures.

From Mr. Morris and Mr. Barnes---On Thursday, October 20 at 7 PM in the gym, I would like to invite you to a meet and greet to discuss the upcoming football season. In this meeting we will talk about the vision and the expectation of this new program that we would hold our students too. Plus inform parents of fundraisers we will do to raise money to help with some out-of-pocket cost of items that kids will have to purchase on their own. And also to hear from the parents. So let's come out and support our students and our school.
