The band performs at the Christmas concert on Dec 17 and in the spring concert in May. We do not rehearse over Christmas break, winter break, or Easter break. All band instruments are welcome, but we especially need saxes, trumpets, trombones and electric bass.
Sarris Candy Online Fundraiser
It is not too soon to start thinking about gifts for the Holidays. Sarris candy would make a great Christmas gift for family, friends, neighbors, coworkers, etc. If those same people would like to participate they also can order even if they are out of state with a flat rate of $7 for shipping or free shipping with an order of $100. Holiday sales will continue through Sunday, December 14, 2025. See the attached flyer for more information.
WINTER ATHLETIC SPORTS FEE
To continue our tradition of excellence in athletics, we require all families of student athletes to pay an athletic fee based on how many sports are played, according to the following schedule:
One Sport: $100.00
Two Sports: $125.00
Three Sports: $150.00
Please note that this is a mandatory school fee and is in addition to any team’s booster club’s activity fee. Please submit your payment to the main office by Friday, February 27th. Please indicate on the envelope your child’s name, grade, and the sport(s) they are participating in. If you have already paid for your fall sport, you only need to pay for your winter sport. If you have yet to pay your fall sports fee, we ask that you please pay it at this time. If you have already paid this fee for the year, thank you very much and you may disregard this message. If you have any questions concerning your child’s sports fee, please contact Ms. Cassie Fedor at [email protected].
Fall Outstanding Balance Letters 25-26
At this time, the Business Office is reviewing all accounts. Over the next week or so, please be on the lookout for an email with a letter containing any outstanding items (fees, etc.) that you may owe at this time in the year. If you have any questions, please contact Ms. Cassie Fedor in the Business Office at [email protected].
