Second Semester Attendance Wavier forms are available in the attendance center.  Attendance forms will be due no later than Friday, May 22 by 1:00 p.m.

 

The waiver provision was written into the policy for the sake of students who have something beyond their control happen to prevent them from being in attendance (e.g. a severe illness, court or death in the family).   Absences on days such as “senior skip day” or the Royals home opener will not be waived.  There are no circumstances under which an UNEXCUSED absence will be waived.

Track Meet Results Varsity District

What a way to end off the regular season for our Lady Indians!  Our varsity team competed at Chisholm Trail this weekend at the Sunflower League Varsity Championships, and were AWESOME!!  Though we ended up in 10th place overall in the League (and just 4 points away from being in 8th place), Coach Katie and I could not be happier with the individual and team successes we had this weekend.  The amount of time that we dropped was phenomenal, and although we didn’t finish as well as we may have hoped, I am so proud of everyone and I’m excited for the future of this team!  Full results for both the prelims and the finals are posted on the website.
