Congrats to Hugo Garza on being first team all-state!
Scavenger hunt and Thanksgiving fun for our teachers and staff to kick off the long break. We had 15 sneaky turkeys hidden around the Jr. High/High School area today and each turkey came with a prize. Our office staff even found a live turkey in the teacher workroom. They were hoping they'd get double points. 🦃🙊
Happy Thanksgiving!!
