Join Girl Scouts!

With the return of more people attending our sports events after COVID, I would like to remind parents that any student 5th grade and below should be sitting with their parents or other adults during the games. We don't have supervision for the playground during the football games and we had quite the rock throwing contest going during the last football game. There's an old saying that "unsupervised children will be give a cappuccino and a puppy at the end of the game." We're not at that point yet but please make sure our younger students are supervised at our games. Thank you for your cooperation.

Marion County Parent as Teachers is hosting Pumpkin Playtime. Please see the flyer attached for more information.

Sophomore and Senior Parents and Students: the Jostens representative will be here tomorrow to take orders for class rings and senior products.

Parents and Guardians, - If students have medication such as epi-pens or inhalers that they use at school, they must have a "permission to self-administration of medication" form filled out and signed by their primary physician. It has to be on file in the office. - We need to know all allergies that a student might have, including food! - If students are taking prescription meds or even over the counter at school, they must have paperwork filled out and on file in the office. Doctors have to sign the prescription meds. (we have students who may still take prescription meds but don't have them in the office) Thank you for your cooperation.

Good Luck to our Cougars who start matches, meets, and games this week! Here are the events this week.
