There's a lot of maintenance and repair to get ready for students in the Fall, and office paperwork to record student achievement and improve teaching practices to increase learning. The first day of school for students in the Fall is September 1.

Our first day of SOFTBALL practice will be a meeting in Mrs. Miller’s room after school TODAY. If you do not have a physical on file from other activities this year, you need to bring one signed by you, your doctor and parent/guardian. Also, this meeting is our meeting with parent/guardian. We will answer any questions you might have about the program at this time. Again, make sure a parent/guardian is present at this meeting.
