ANNOUNCEMENTS/TODAY'S EVENTS
This Friday, finish your work and be done. Look forward to the weekend and have some fun!" Wrap up your tasks and get ready to relax, EAGLE NATION! The farmer has to be an optimist, or he wouldn’t still be a farmer. Our Boys' Varsity soccer team put up a great battle last night in the Opening Round of Sectionals, but they came up short.  Great season, Gentlemen.  Congratulations to the Varsity Volleyball team as they won their 10th straight League Title and pushed their league winning streak to 97 games on Wear Purple night in honor of Alzheimer's awareness.
The next few nights are going to be chilly, so make sure to bundle up.

 The Girls' Varsity Soccer Team is the #11 seed in the Section 2 Class C Sectionals.  They travel to the #6 Seed Maple Hill today for a 3:00 p.m. start at Maple Hill HS.

Make sure to get out to support the Eagles as the Fall Sports season is coming to an end.  Check out the schedule below.

Remember, keep it classy, Eagle Nation!
