1st Quarter Conduct Card Ice Cream Party

FOX News

Fabulous Friday Dragons!

The week got off to a great start with our Dragon Junior High Volleyball team winning the league tournament championship. On the road to the Championship, our Dragons defeated rival Sylvan-Lucas in the semi-finals before taking down Paradise to claim the championship.

On Tuesday, the high school volleyball team played Otis-Bison in the quarter finals of regionals. Our Dragons played their hearts out and represented themselves very well as they battled toe to toe with the much taller and more experienced opponent.

Wednesday during seminar the 7th-12th grade students that are still on their white card (1st conduct card) enjoyed an ice cream sundae celebration. The conduct card system consists of 5 targets traits and expectations: Respect, Responsibility, Honesty, Citizenship and Prompt & Prepared. We are very proud of all of our Dragons!

Do not forget we are celebrating Red Ribbon Week next week.

Have a great weekend.
