It’s hard to believe that I am typing that the end of Quarter 1 is approaching.   Quarter 1 ends on November 6 and as I have said a number of times already this year, the energy in the building has been fantastic.  School will be closed for election day on November 5 and also on November 7 and 8 for teachers’ convention.  The All School Play will be performed on Friday, November 15 and Saturday, November 16.  Schools will be closed for Thanksgiving on November 28 and 29 with a one-session day on Wednesday, November 27.  The all sports booster dinner will take place on December 3 at the Fiesta.  

Our athletic teams have had an amazing fall.  Our football team, both boys’ and girls’ soccer teams, volleyball, and cross country have or are still participating in the state tournament.  It has been a remarkable start for our sports teams.  In addition, our clubs and activities are in full swing.
