We have our wonderful school auction on the 10th! This is a great event that only happens every two years. All the money donated supports opportunities for our students. More information about the auction check out the information in this newsletter.
We can't wait to see you at our fantastic winter concert on December 13th. We will be having two sessions in one night.

We also have a food drive right now at Big Lake until the 9th. We are collecting food for needs in our community and to support other needs in neighboring schools in our district. You can bring food into the main office and we will be lining the halls with your donations.
