Sports Announcements:

Yesterday, our girls’ soccer team faced a tough challenge and came up short against a strong opponent in Sunnybrae School. While the result wasn’t what we had hoped for, the game provided valuable lessons and opportunities for growth. A special shout-out goes to OA for continuing to work hard until the final whistle. We look forward to putting what we learned into action at our next game.

The girls’ soccer team is reminded that they have a practice next Monday after school from 3 to 4 PM.

Cheer Tryouts continue today at 3pm. make sure you remember your indoor shoes.  Anyone wanting to practice the tryout routine can come to Trish’s room, room 207, at first recess. Roster will be posted next week.

Congratulations to ALL the cross-country runners who participated in their races yesterday!  Your coaches and teachers are especially proud of you.  A special shout out to NS and TN for a strong first practice race.
