Thank you American Legion Auxiliary #389 for helping our K-8 students with the Reading is Fundamental program!
Thank you Wildcat family for some good Homecoming week memories!
What a great first ROAR Recess! Nearly 95% of our students participated in the Kick-off Kickball tournament! I was able to work with this group of Jr. Helpers to pop 300 bags of Popcorn, set up the Pavilion, play music and promote our PBIS incentives! Also, special thanks to the Athletic Boosters for helping us with popcorn supplies! If anyone staff members have pictures from the day, please add them to the comments on our Facebook page! Thanks again!
