Are you a middle schooler interested in representing your grade playing soccer on Spirit Day Friday March 24th? If so, get a permission form from your Social Studies teacher and ask your parents to complete it and sign it. Forms will be collected by your Social Studies teacher until the end of the school day on Friday March 17th. However, due to having a limited amount of spots, the sooner you turn in your completed from, the higher chances you will have to make the team. E-mail Mrs. Kime if you have any questions. 

If you are a Junior Beta member and you signed up for the March 20th Old Fort Park cleanup service project, please pick up a release form from the folder on Mrs. Stanley's classroom door.

The middle school softball team opened up regular season play against Stewarts Creek middle school Monday afternoon. Pitchers Emalyn Rein and Oliva Groce persevered in a tough red hawk offense and Emalyn even played out the rest of the first inning despite getting walloped by a softball. Offensively, first base El Foss made it to base on a successful bunt and base on balls before stealing second. Catcher, Cad Young, made it to base with a hit pitch and proceeded to steel second and third.  

The team is back in action this Thursday at McKnight Park against Rock Springs.
