Football Team in Need of Filmers
Our Football team is in need of filmers. They start the week of April 22nd and will go through the week of May 13, with our spring game on May 16th. Students who are interested would need to be moved into first period athletics. They would get to run the drones to capture practice for football. Filmers are very important to the Football Program and they could not do it without them. It's also a great way to be a part of the team! If you are a part of the program in the fall, you can receive your letterman.
If interested, please contact Cody Monsen @ cody.monsen@rockwallisd.org or come to the Football office during 1st or 8th period.
Thank you and Go Hawks!
