The high school students had their Christmas party today. They went bowling, ate at Pizza Ranch, and played dodgeball when we got back! It was a great day!

Due to impending winter storm tonight, the game time for the boys basketball games have been moved to an earlier start time to allow the team to get home before the storm. The JV game will start at 5:45 in Freeman, followed by the varsity game.

Due to impending weather later tonight, we are starting the boy's basketball game with Gregory earlier. The JV game will start at 6:00 PM with a shortened half-time. Immediately after the JV game we will have Parent's Night. Announcing for Parent's Night will start a little before 7:00 PM.
