MS Athlete Recognition Night and

7th and 8th Grade Family Tailgate  Friday, September 23

 

Middle School fall athletes will be recognized during halftime at the September 23 home game against Prince Avenue Christian School.   We hope all 7th and 8th grade families will be able to join us for a potluck picnic tailgate before the game at 6:00 p.m. at the track house.   Plan to stay for the game to support the Spartan football team and our own Middle School athletes!
