Our dining for $$$ program at Pizza hut fell off thismonth with only 9 families participating.  please help us when you can on our dining for $$ weeks.  no more Whataburger Wednesdays.

Scrip cards are in you can pick them up from Kathy – please call or email her to make arrangements to pick them up before Friday.

I have had a few questions about scrip this month.  Our new deadline is November 28th at the band booster meeting.  You may place your order from 6:30- 8:00 that evening or on Saturday the 26th or Sunday the 27th from 12-5 with Kathy Cavin. This order should be in and ready for distribution by the7th of December.  It usually takes a week to a week and ½ to turn the orders around if everyone follows the ordering rules and we have no bounced checks.  We have to deposit the checks on November 29th so they clear before we can place the order. Then the order has to be placed and mailed to us and a group of people have to batch each of the orders before they can go out.  You will definitely have the cards before Christmas if you are going to order Christmas gift cards.  We are anticipating a large order this month so please be accurate with your forms and money.  Use the new form on the website so that the cards are accurate for our records.

If you are a middle school parent you do not need to read any further

The Band Boosters is going to provide ALL the  band students with a meal this Friday before the game.  This includes color guard.  We will serve pizza candy and a water.   If your child does not want pizza then you must provide their meal.  Their report time is quite early  so please make sure their food is there promptly at 4:00.

Depending on whether the football team wins or loses will depend on what happens the following week( 14-18th) we will update you with schedules as they become available.

Reminder they have marching practice this week Wednesday the 9th and Friday the 11th at 7;45 a.m.
