Parents of Bear Cub athletes,
Please remember that Bear Cubs is about teaching your kids to love the game of basketball.
Our coaches and officials are kids in grades 7-12, not professionals. They are volunteering their time and energy for your kids, so please treat them with respect. They are trying their best to make it a positive experience for everyone involved.
If you cannot refrain from yelling at refs or coaches, you may be asked to leave.
Today is National IT Professional Day, and we want to say thank you to our IT Specialists, Matt Jones and Shayne Wallis, for everything they do behind the scenes to keep things running! Thank you!
Elementary car rider parents...we are now pulling up 7 cars at a time, instead of 6. Sometimes there might be plus or minus 1, depending on how many families are being picked up in one vehicle, or if someone's tag doesn't scan. Pulling up 7 cars made it go faster, so plan on being in the parking lot by 3:25. If the car rider lot is empty when you get here, we'll be waiting on the elementary porch or in the foyer. Thank you and have a good evening!
This morning, Monday, Sept. 18, Bus 3, Mr. Altom's bus is running about 6 minutes late. We apologize for the inconvenience.
I apologize for the late notice! Kona Ice will be joining us this Friday! See the attached flyers for prepay K-4 and 5-8.

September is Suicide Prevention & Awareness Month – a time to raise awareness about this often-stigmatized topic and focus in on mental health. As we recognize this month, our priority is to ensure students have access to the resources they need to discuss suicide prevention and to seek help. Taking the time to talk to someone can make a difference. If you notice someone who may be at risk, don’t hesitate #BETHE1TO ask if they are ok and let them know you are there for them. #BETHE1To encourage them to ask for help. If you are having thoughts about suicide, find a trusted adult to reach out to for help or you can call or text the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline at 988! We are all in this together!
Congratulations to our 2023 White County Central's Basketball Homecoming Royalty!!
