The Washington D.C. Youth Tour is a prestigious event in which thousands of high school juniors and seniors from across the nation join in Washington D.C., to gain an understanding of our nation's history and the freedoms we enjoy. It is sponsored and paid for by Sheridan Electric. Way to go Sydney and thank you Sheridan Electric!
8th Grade Parents: We are great with pizza and bars for tomorrow concessions! Nicki W, Lacy B, Carrie E and Jen W will be working as parent volunteers. We have the slots filled for tomorrow for student help: 4:30-6:30 Angelo, James and Breanna, 6:30-8:30 Mischa, Molly, and Avni, 8:30-Clean-up Taylor, Jada and Austin. We are aware that we will be working around pep band responsibilities as well, so we may need a few fillers during pre-game and halftime. We are also aware that some basketball boys can help but we haven't gotten a commitment from them yet. There is such thing as having too many people in the kitchen so we are hoping we can get some help on the 21st from them when they can. Concessions will open well before basketball begins that day.
We still need paper plates, plastic forks, alfredo sauce, cooks, parmesan, ice donated for the 21st. It is very hard to predict what we need for amounts of sauce. Please contact us via email to let us know if you can help with the donations. Thanks much!
We are having some phone issues, we have contacted NCC. Hopefully they will be working shortly. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Explore America will be selling Coffee, Italian Sodas, and Zingers!
Preorder your drink and pick it up!
Drink sales this week are BEFORE school from 7:50 am-8:22 on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and AFTER school on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeb9bHVOJ7F6CopV7pyQaPQ8CkboQszgCIygxNFYr8Iya332w/viewform?usp=sf_link
