Our 6th graders give back to elementary families every week from October to May! They pack over 60 bags of food, from EFPN in Midland, then deliver the bags to elementary classrooms. Then, they break down all of the cardboard cases for recycling. So proud of our Comets for taking on this awesome leadership opportunity!
Many thanks to our WatchDOGS volunteers so far this year: Ryan Baker (with daughter Kyleigh), Matt Sysak (with son Crase), Stefan Jones (with nephew Dane), and Matt Huber (with sons Jason and Mathew)! We enjoyed having you hang out with us for a day. The kids had a good time, too!

Some families have received P-EBT cards for their child from the State as part of COVID food relief. One glitch is that it asks for the last 4 digits of your child's social security number. However, when you input that number, it tells you it is incorrect information. What you actually need to do is input "0000" and it should work. We hope this is helpful to you.
Do YOU know about the changes this year to the Homecoming schedule?
Friday, October 7th: Homecoming parade @ 5:30 pm, Powder Puff football game @ 7 pm.
Saturday, October 8th: Homecoming football game @ 11 am, Homecoming dance @ 8pm-11pm.
