Football Games: A Note To Parents
It is a common practice for students of all ages to congregate and play in the area behind the visitors' bleachers at football games. Please be notified that parents must supervise their children at all times. There is no supervision in that area by school personnel. Thank you for your attention to this matter.FEATURED VIDEOS:
