Order of events for today's track meet
High school students traveled to the University of Kansas last weekend for the annual World Language Fair. Students could choose which world language sessions they attended as well as speak to many college representatives about their programs. Some highlights were Japanese calligraphy, Caribbean rumba dance class, the Roman selfie, Korean pop culture, and flamenco dancing. We have attended every year that KU has put on the event!

Due to some scheduling conflicts, we will NOT be attending the JH Track meet in Mankato on April 18th. We don't want to put our kids in a position where they miss any opportunities. We were, however, able to pick up a meet in Osbone on April 19th. This will be an all day event, with the meet starting in the morning. Thank you for your understanding and flexibility.
Both Basketball and Football meetings tonight it is encouraged for athletes and parents to attend. Hopefully can finalize some plans for the summer tonight!
Reminder: tonight there will be a girls basketball meeting (all current 5-11 grade players) at 5:30 in the New Gym Commons. After that at 6, there will be a Football meeting (current 6-11 grades) to talk fundraiser and summer plans.
