We have several events this week. On Tuesday, all students who participated in JH Academic UIL will be taken to Cici's Pizza in Stephenville. The school will pay for lunch but your child may want to bring money for the arcade games. We also have a baseball game on this night at home. On Wednesday, our high school students participating in academic UIL will travel to Huckabay for our district meet. We will leave the school at 7:00 a.m. Students should be at school by 6:50 a.m. Students will return to school at either 1:30 or 6:00, depending on individual schedules. On Thursday, our JH students will participate in the district track meet in Gordon. Friday is an early release day for students. Grades pre-k through 5 will be dismissed at 1:00 p.m. Grades 6-12 will also be dismissed at this time; however, if your child is not staying to eat lunch at school, he or she may leave at 12:30.
