Students will be able to take a late bus home at 4:00 or you can pick up at the main entrance at 4:30.
If students are taking the late bus, they do need to let the main office know!
$5 event tickets will be sold during lunches on Tuesday, Feb 28 and Wednesday, March 1.
There will be beach ball volleyball games, LIMBO, relay races, carnival games, snow cones, cotton candy and crafts. Leis, sunglasses, snacks and water will also be for sale.
For each ticket paid, the students will receive 1 FREE snow cone cup.
Our last APO meeting that will cover our remaining events of 2023 will be on March 13 from 7-8pm in the Library. We hope to see you there!
