Did you know? Our percentage of free and reduced students affects the percentage of our federal funding. This school year, 20-21, we have seen a significant drop in our free and reduced student count from 35% to 19%. This means that our federal funds will be reduced from 35% to 19%. Even though the meals are free for all students, we strongly encourage families to fill out the private application. The application is available on our website under documents or you can call the school and we will email it to you. Thank you!
Details involving Girls Basketball District tournament voucher and guidelines will be sent out on Monday Feb 8th.
The tournament will be held at Williston State College Feb. 11, 12, & 13.
We look forward to seeing everyone there!
