The Basketball Teams were Mad in the gym last Friday night - as in Midnight Madness Mad!
In the spirit of the great college basketball programs around the country, the Bulldogs adopted their own version of Midnight Madness, introducing the girls’ and boys’ basketball teams to rockin’ tunes and flashing lights. Kids from our cluster elementary and middle schools came out along with our own students to cheer on the Basketball Bulldogs. Raffles, Games & Food! A great start to a promising season!
