News from the Principal
We appreciate all the donations to the Buckaroo Race and your support of our runners and our campus. Special thanks to our P.T.O. for all the hard work they put into the race.
Our P.T.O. will be hosting the annual Penguin Patch December 3rd - 7th. This Christmas store gives our students the opportunity to shop for family members. Our P.T.O. will be sending home more information about this shopping experience. We will have a P.T.O. meeting on Tuesday, December 11th at 4:00 p.m. in the cafeteria. It is never too late to join!
Do you know a “Senior Citizen” living in Sanger? If so, please let them know about the annual luncheon provided by S.I.S.D. on Wednesday, December 12th at 11:30 a.m. Turkey, dressing, and the fixings will be served to local senior citizens at Sanger High School. Our Chisholm Trail students will be making special gifts for them to take home.
