Attention Staff and Students! Students, please remember to deposit your LEAD tickets in the grade level bin located in the cafeteria. Teachers don't forget to sign them so that you have a chance to win a prize too! Starting at the end of the month, there will be a prize for the student in each grade level who has received the most Lead Tickets.
Tickets are now on sale for the high school’s fall play: Murder on the Orient Express! Student tickets are only $5! Join us November 7th, 8th, and 9th for mayhem, mystery, and of course murder
