No School November 21-23

I want begin this evening by reminding everyone that there will be no school this Wednesday, November 21 through Friday November 23 in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday. Students will return to class on Monday, November 26.

Congratulations

With the fall sports season coming to an end, I want to congratulate our varsity and JV football teams on their excellent season. Our JV team finished with a 9-1 record and finished as the top JV team in the conference. The varsity team finished 3rd in the conference this season and picked up several exciting victories this year, including wins over Walkertown, Surry Central, county-rival Starmount. Congratulations to our varsity and JV football teams.

I also want to congratulate our Theatre Department and teacher Jamie Campbell on the excellent performances last week. Our theatre students put on an incredible performance of Aladdin Jr. Great job students and thank you to everyone who came out to watch the show and support our arts department.
