Homecoming/Tailgate Night: This Friday night is Homecoming. In celebration, we are promoting our annual tailgating event prior to the game! However, this year will be different because of the limited parking due to our building construction. Beginning at 5:00 on Friday, anyone who wants to tailgate can set up in the lower school parking lot. The PTF will have Kona Ice here for purchase and the lower school playground will be open for kids to play. No food tents will be set up as in the past, so make plans to bring your own tailgate items. Also, please make arrangements to discard trash, etc. prior to the game. Our school's accreditation site visit is this coming Monday/Tuesday so we need the campus in tip top shape. Homecoming festivities begin at 6:30, with the game kicking off at 7:00. Go Eagles!
