There have been a couple of changes for the High School Homecoming festivities! The bonfire will be in the east gravel parking lot of the high school this year following the Mustang Games on Wednesday, October 9th! This will allow for less traveling, and hopefully more attendance!
Also, we have added on a rescheduled cross country meet to Thursday, October 10th. This will mean we will push back the start time of the Homecoming Coronation from 7 to approximately 7:45 or 8 pm to allow all of those athletes to attend!
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the High School office at 641-664-2200 ext 1132.
The parent meeting about ALICE training will not take place tomorrow (Monday) night. It has been rescheduled for Thursday, October 3 at 6:30PM in the Middle School Commons.
