*As our home fall games are coming to an end, A huge shout-out and thank-you to the students who stepped up to help make our fall athletic events such a success!  Your time, effort, and hard work helped everything run smoothly. A big thank you to: Kallie Bockrath, Morgan Bockrath, Izzy Buss, Riley Horstman, Ava Meyer, Enna Meyers, Avery Miller, Camryn Niemeyer, Zoe Pothast, Sophia Potts, Kenzie Remlinger, Kayden Sickles, Maya Wehri & students in the band that performed the National Anthem at soccer games. We appreciate all that you do! Underclassman, there will be big shoes to fill next fall when our Seniors are in college, see Ashley Ellerbrock if you would like a job next fall. 

*The only students allowed to leave at 3:00pm are the Parent Pickups-not the walkers, bike riders, scooter riders, or e-bikers!! The only ones allowed to leave at 3:00pm are the Parent pick-ups. You MUST exit from the event entrance doors…not Mr. Gables. And, your parents need to be parked in the parent parking lot area, not the main one. It is obvious when there are other kids walking around outside instead of with the rest of the parent pick up crew!
