(Tattoos and bracelets will be for sale by the PTO for $1 if you missed buying one) If you received an extra shirt by mistake, please turn it into the office so we can make it right with everyone before the race.

Parents, Today we practiced our lockdown procedures with the help of our SRO and Choudrant PD. Students practiced the procedures we have in place, if ever there is a need for a lockdown. Our students knew before the drill happened that we would be practicing and this was not a real event. Students did a great job.
