We hope that many will join in on the dress up day, but it should be noted that Wednesday is Picture Retake Day. If you are having your school picture taken or retaken and don’t want to wear pink for the picture, feel free to bring something pink to change into after your picture.
Attention Students: No hats means no hats – unless we have a special dress up day that includes hats, please do not wear them in the building. Leave them in your vehicle, locker, or at home. Thank you!

The Golden Bear football team won a hard fought conference game at Eastern Hancock 27-21 Friday night. The Bear’s were good in all three areas Offense/Defense and most importantly Special teams. The defense held on the last play from scrimmage to close the game. Offensively the Bear’s had one turnover which was an interception. The team is at seven turnovers on the year with zero fumbles lost. Finally, Elijah Taylor and his special team mates were timely with three point after attempts, several kicks and kick covers that held field position. Way to go Bears!
