We recently commended the students who took part in our summer reading program. Sadly, we omitted the name of Kirsten Osborne, 3rd grader, who took part in the program. Our apologies are extended to Kirsten and her family and she is commended for her summer reading success.
Our Rebel football team is commended for the fine showing against Springwood last Thursday. Since this was an “extra game” and did not count in any area standings, coaches had agreed to not use overtime rules in case of a tie. The game did end in a 14-14 tie, but our Rebels were impressive in controlling the line of scrimmage and running the football, almost at will.
The Rebels will now travel to Crenshaw Academy Friday, 8/30, to take on former CA coach Rick Jackson and his Cougars. Please support the Rebels as they embark on the first road trip of the year.
We also commend our volleyball team for their effort last Thursday against Cornerstone. The young Rebel squad fell in three straight games but were competitive in all three games. Improvement in the squad was obvious. The next volleyball game will be on Thursday, 8/29, as we host SMCA in two matches, starting at 4:00. Support our young ladies as they continue to improve.
This is a reminder that Monday, 9/2, is Labor Day and a school holiday.
Parents are encouraged to help your children in the PTO magazine drive underway at this time. This is one of those really outstanding fundraisers in that it is a quality product at a reasonable price and returns a very respectable 40% profit to the school.
Many people simply do not want magazines piling up at home and choose not to order them. If that describes you, but you would like to help with this drive, consider purchasing a magazine for our library collection. This is a double winner for the school as the library gets the magazine and we get the 40% profit as well. You may choose any magazine from the catalogue or you may choose from the “wish list” from Miss Jane. If you donate a magazine to the library, please complete the deliver to address as follows:
