8th Graders/Parents,

JV softball practice for 8th graders will begin on Tuesday, May 5th, right after school, around 4:00 PM at the high school softball fields. If students are currently participating in a spring sport, they should attend those commitments first and then join softball practice afterward when they are able, depending on their schedules and any meets or events.

At this time, this invitation is specifically for 8th grade girls. Additional middle school practice opportunities will be shared at a later date from MS softball coaches.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

A huge huge thank you to our 5th grade Pen Pals! This year, Ms. Alexander has revived our pen pal program and what a great showing by this amazing community. Throughout the year, pen pals have gone above and beyond writing letters. They have shown up for parties, provided gifts, and developed amazing connections with our students. We're so grateful for your dedication and support!
