We've Got Crazy School Spirit! Yes, We Do!
Tomorrow night (September 6) is the first home game for our Junior High football team. Let's fill the stands with the color blue. Because we want to build up our community, parents who attend the game will get two (2) volunteer credits. Vouchers will be handed out at the gate and will need to be stapled to the volunteer form. Game starts at 5:00 p.m. - Reicher Stadium.
Go Cougars!

Volunteer Opportunities
Marquee Sign Volunteers
Front Office Volunteers
Do you enjoy doing yard work such as trimming trees, shrubs, pulling weeds, blowing leaves off a playground, etc.? Then you might want to be one of our yard maintenance volunteers. The school needs someone twice a month to help keep our yard and playground looking great. You can make your own schedule. Volunteers will get one volunteer credit for each hour worked.
We also need someone to help supervise the updating of our front marquee sign. We need someone about twice a month to come in the afternoon to help our 8th grade students update our marquee. This project will take about one hour each time, and volunteers will get one volunteer credit for each time worked.
If you are interested in one or both of the above volunteer opportunities, please contact Mrs. Chollett.
We also need volunteers to help answer phones and check in visitors in the front office from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. daily. If you are interested in helping in the front office, please contact Mrs. Tessa Flaquer.
