Sr. Boys Basketball Home Tournament Information
Congrats
They will be hosting their Home Tournament on January 27-28th. Please contact Coach Jacquie Stuart for further information. Below find the draw.
CANTEEN HAS RE-OPENED FOR LUNCHES
Another quick option for lunch for our students.
We will be offering favorites such as: cup-o-soup, pepperoni sticks, cheese, yogurts, sandwiches, and other grab-and-go snacks. Students will be asked to bring cash if they want to buy these items.
We will NOT be offering “accounts”, but there will be an option to load money on the student's PowerSchool account and give students a punch card that we will deduct to a zero balance. The punch cards will be the student’s responsibility to manage and the school will not be responsible for lost or stolen punch cards.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out.
