Schedule Change for Game #9 on 10/20, Senior Show

Kick-off for the home game on 10/20, our Senior Show day, has been moved from 1 PM to Noon due to the soccer team earning a home field playoff game.  Students who are in outside ensembles, and all senior parents or escorts, should make sure their schedules allow for that change.  Halftime for that game should start around 1 PM.

Pep Band Info/Fundraiser Reminder

This weekend is college visitation so we will be taking a Pep Band to Brush on Friday night.  Call time is 6 PM in the band room, and dress is Shaker attire and jeans.  Students should dress in layers, the forecast calls for a low temperature near freezing on Friday night.

Don't forget about the Coffee, Fruit, and Chocolate fundraiser to help students raise money for their personal trip accounts or for the Boosters general trip fund.  All ordering will be online this year and more information can be found on the Fundraiser Page.
