While we are excited to continue to compete in the fall sports still playing, winter sports will begin later this month. Students and families can expect to receive information about winter sports by Tuesday. The information will include a link to sign up for each sport and the first activity and meeting dates for each activity. Please contact Coach O’Connell with questions. Thank you!
With a short week of school, use the time during the week to support your classmates on Wednesday, and Saturday, but also to get the second quarter off to a good start academically. We look forward to seeing you all on Wednesday at the pep rally and at the games on Wednesday and Saturday!
GO CRUSADERS!
