This is a great opportunity to get involved with some awesome coaches on a team that has a tradition of placing in the state tournament.
Parents and Guardians:
Please refrain from stopping at the playground and talking to the students through the fence. Not all the staff outside supervising the students know all the parents. We want to make sure we are keeping our children safe. If you need to talk to them please come into the office and we would be more than happy to bring them for you to speak with. Thank you!
