On December 2nd at 6 pm we are going to have a parent meeting to discuss attendance at home basketball games. We understand the importance to be here to support your children and we have came up with a strategy to maximize those numbers. We ask that at least 1 parent of each student playing high school basketball be there. With your cooperation we can maximize the amount of family we have at games. Please also understand that attendance rules can change at anytime to coincide with the Governor's restrictions.
