December 9th and 10th @ 7:00 pm - tickets at the door
Sing Out Loud!
What is a choir that can't be heard? Every audience member should be able to experience what our students have to offer clearly, from every seat and every venue. Our current equipment served us well for a long time, but choir has changed and we need to evolve with it. Outdated speakers and unreliable microphones are keeping us from reaching our full potential in a way that benefits our kids and community.
Your support can help us invest in choir's future with quality sound equipment like wireless microphones, portable quality speakers, cords and mixers. Our students have already raised funds. Click HERE to help.
Every contribution will help us expand musical style exploration and context, making it possible to highlight students' best sounds and go on the road for field trips and events with confidence!
Our goal is to raise $2,900 towards sound equipment that will enhance our acoustic learning with common music industry tools, allow our singers to travel to a wider range of environments within the community and reach even more students. With the match from BEF and Go Warriors Alumni Fund, your gift is DOUBLED. Thank you!

Hello Warriors family!
We need help in the concession stand. We need some parents who are able to be a part of the PTO team and help run concessions. We offer concessions for boys and girls basketball as well as wrestling. Currently there is not enough help and we will have to be closed for some games. To help run concessions, you would arrive an hour prior to game time to setup, assist volunteer staff in serving customers, and clean up, generally 4 to 5 hours depending on the sport. If you are available to help at all, please email alohapto@gmail.com.
We are also needing some help with staffing the games.
On Dec. 6th, I need 2 people from 3:30-5:30, 2 people from 5:00 to 7:00, and 3 people from 6:30 to 8:15.
If you are interested in helping with a 2 hour or longer shift, contact alohapto@gmail.com.

Most everything is allowed, you can use a song lyric, famous quote, a line from your favorite tv show or something you came up with. Your quote is a maximum of 65 characters and that includes spaces.
What’s not allowed? ABSOLUTELY NO HATE SPEECH. No profanity, and no offensive comments. Don’t say anything you wouldn’t want a teacher or guardian hearing.

It's that time of year to continue working on post-graduation plans.
