The Middle School President Marian Munoz-Acosta and Vice President Blaine Allender both attended engaging sessions on leadership in FFA. There were also very informative sessions for the Advisors to attend to help engage our chapters in the school and the community. It was nice to be able to network and Interact with other Ag Teachers/FFA Advisors across the state.
Our chapter is excited about the 24-25 school year and look forward to the skills and ideas that Marian and Blaine will bring with them!
if you missed the SENIOR PARENT NIGHT last Monday here is some information on the Senior Package. This year we are offering two Packages. If you are interested in any of them please make sure to fill out the form by October 11, 2024, and submit it to any of the Senior Class sponsors or to Ms. Holly, the Executive Secretary.
We have only ordered 100 GradBash tickets, so at the moment we can only sell 100 (Package A) Seniors packets. If you are not interested in Gradbash, then Package B would be ideal for you, it includes everything else except the senior trip. If you are only interested in the CAP & Gown, it is $80.00 and you can only order it through the school.
When you fill out the form MAKE SURE TO MARK WHICH PACKAGE YOU WANT.
Also, make sure you pay on time because if the package is not paid in full, you will automatically be placed for Package B.
If you have any other questions feel free to reach out to any of the class sponsors. The Senior Class Sponsors are: Oscar Jaimes, Kate Livesey, Alicia Baylon, or Jamie Garcia.
