Upcoming Gala
Grab your pom-poms, jerseys and checkered overalls and join us for this year's gala, themed around fall Saturdays in the South: the 2018 College GameDay Gala!
Cheer the night away with our favorite referee emcee, David Karnes. Be the next MVP - this fun-filled night of games like quarterback toss and more will make this a once-in-a-lifetime experience. From the silent auction filled with unique gift basket creations to all the passion and fanfare that the live auction brings, this is a tailgate your company or family won't want to miss!
We are currently asking for auction donations, so if you know someone that would like to donate an item or help sponsor the event, please email development: development@silverdaleba.org.

Box Tops for Education

Athletic Corner
We have had an exciting start to our school year in the athletics department! We are pleased to offer all Silverdale students free admission to home games in all sports (excluding post-season play per TSSAA rules). Students must present ID's in one of 2 forms: Either the actual ID or a picture of the CURRENT school year ID at the gate of home athletic events. Students who do not provide this will need to pay gate admission.
Middle School Showcase on September 14th
On Sept 14th at halftime of our High School football game we will showcase our fall middle school athletes. The five teams that will be recognized at halftime will be Football, Softball, Tennis, Cross Country and Cheer.
This will be an exciting evening for both those students participating in fall sports and their parents. The students' names will be called as they run out on the field as a team. We want to acknowledge their hard work and dedication to our athletic program. They are asked to stage at the practice field on the visitors side of the stadium mid way through the second quarter to be met by their coaches.
If you have any questions, please contact Tim Thompson at tthompson@silverdaleba.org
