Hello families,
We are looking forward to supporting our Tiger Football team and the band this evening as we compete against the Graham. We want to remind everyone to please remember that elementary students are expected to be with and supervised by their parents and middle school students can sit in the bleachers in the end zone near the scoreboard during the game. Also please remember that smoking, vaping or any using of tobacco is prohibited on school grounds. Last, we do not want students bringing their own footballs to the game, and all fans should stay inside the fence that surrounds the stadium for the duration of the contest. Let's cheer on our Tigers this evening and have a great time. Also a shout out to our boys and girls soccer and golf teams that are off to a great start and best of luck to our cross country and volleyball teams that have their first meets soon; Volleyball starts tomorrow and Cross Country starts next weekend. Have a great evening!

Hello, Earlier today i sent out a message reminding families to complete FinalForms for your child by this Friday, August 18th. In the message I stated school starts on September 6th. Unfortunately, this was an error and school starts on September 5th. I apologize for the mix up. Thank you to those who caught my mistake! This does, however, provide the opportunity to remind elementary parents that we will be using a staggered start for elementary students again this year. Please be sure to contact Mrs. Cotrell, Elementary Secretary, if you have any questions.
Thank you,
Kraig Hissong

If you have no changes, completing FinalForms should take fewer than 5 minutes. Thank you!
