Principal's Message
Dear Bobcat Families,
This Monday, November 13th all students who are interested in playing soccer will attend an informational meeting at 3:30 in the Bobcat Den. Students will learn information about eligibility, tryouts, etc.
This Wednesday is the Day of Awesomeness from our Fundraiser, Step it Up. Students who meet eligibility criteria, will receive entry wristbands from their homeroom teachers on Wednesday morning. They will attend classes per their normal schedule and check in with their 3rd period teacher for attendance. They will then proceed to the grass field area at 10:30 for the fun. The event is from 10:30 to 12:00 p.m. Student participants will enjoy music from a live DJ, inflatable obstacle courses, interactive games, prizes and more!
ASB is sponsoring a campus clean up this Wednesday, November 15th from 3:00-4:00 p.m. Come join the fun and help keep our campus beautiful!
The month of November is Native American Heritage Month. All month our ASB students will highlight different Native Americans on the bulletin board on University Drive. In addition, Native Americans will be highlighted during morning announcements and on Google Drive. Join us as we celebrate the rich heritage and contributions of Native Americans.
