This year, we counted down the '12 Days Until Christmas Break' with some dress-up. Three students were chosen as best dressed on tree-topper and present day: Emma, Lexie, and Kenzie. Three more students were selected as best dressed on Ho-Ho-Hoedown day: Gage, Vayda, and Ryker. Congratulations to all students participating in our '12 Days Until Christmas Break' dress-up fun! We had a lot of fun looking at everyone and trying to pick only three for best dressed was TOUGH! Keep showing your school spirit as we finish out the week and head into the much-anticipated Christmas break. Happy Holidays from the Middle School and High School Student Councils!

Hawkeye Supporters we need your help! The hawkeye basketball teams in Junior High and High School are supporting the athletics department with a Free Throw A Thon fundraiser. We know free throws can be an all important shot in basketball and can win or lose a ballgame. With this fundraiser we will work on this all important skill by shooting 100 free throws for each player. You may "pledge" how many shots they make to what you owe them OR you can support them by a simple donation to the cause. We appreciate your support in helping them reach their team goal! With these fundraisers we have supported our athletes in basketball this past year by purchasing the following. New Basketballs for each program, New uniforms for the JH girls and boys teams, practice pennies, New uniforms for our HS Girls program, New HS basketball racks, among other things. This support goes a long way for our groups. Thanks for all you do for us and see a basketball team member today to help the cause!! HAWKEYE PRIDE
