Dress up tomorrow for Halloween. We have a fun day at school with staff dressing up as well.

2-Please keep costumes simple & school appropriate. We do not want you spending time in the bathroom adjusting a costume.

3-Do not bring any weapons or items that can be used as weapons or even a item that l. Extra items that are a part of your costume are a risk of becoming lost, so be mindful that we will not be here after school if you lose it.

8th grade Volleyball Team closed their season on the road against Madison, and played one of their best matches sweeping the Trojans. Scoring leaders included Ava Deland, Peyton Edwards, & Grace Teske. Also scoring points were Quinn Ruttkofsky, Addisan Thompson, Braelyn Valasek, & Avery Parks.  Great job tonight by all team members!  After a season of much effort & hard work, the cats finish with an overall record of 8-5, which will help as they prepare to move on to high school.  Very proud of this group! Congrats!

The girls held the lead in the third set, but fell short at the end.. Leading servers for the team last night were Brielle Aiken, Jordyn Adams, Lydia Sutherland, and Brynn Lowe.. The girls played their hearts out and left it all on the court. Coach Cass is beyond proud of this team’s hard work and effort this season. Congratulations girls!
