Get ready to embrace your inner winter warrior because it is time to sign up for the most ridiculous relays for Winter Convocation, which will take place Friday, Dec 20th.

If you are interested in participating in our afternoon of epic shenanigans instead of just watching, go to the online link for all choices and video descriptions.  Sign-ups will close on Friday, Dec 13th and if you are chosen, you will be notified by Dec 18th! See Mr Sparks or Mrs Musselwhite with questions.

We have new hygiene products, new or gently used clothing, and more available for your personal use.
