Fall Festival
We are excited to offer a Fall Festival this year that will coincide with parent conference week and early voting!
- Our Fall Festival will be on Tuesday, October 24 from 5:00 - 7:00.
- Booths will be carnival style games or other activities for students to earn candy prizes.
- The games at the festival will be free for families.
- Donations of candy or prizes from parents are accepted.
- The Lion's Club will have their concessions cart on campus in the circle drive. Concessions will have a charge.
- Since Early Voting is also happening in the gym, we will plan to have all booths outside lining the driveways, weather permitting. In the case of bad weather, we will use the cafeteria and classrooms.
Halloween Story Book Character Dress Up Day!
