This Week! (9/30)

Good Afternoon,

 

We have so much information to share this week!  Here is everything you need to know:

 

1 – Our homecoming parade is TOMORROW, here at SPHS.  Students should plan to bring their casual uniform to school with them.  We will plan to practice in our casual uniforms and move straight from practice to the parade.  Parents – we encourage you to attend the parade and community pep rally tomorrow evening.  The parade starts at 6:30 and the community pep rally will happen directly after the parade in the South Paulding HS Football Stadium.  Students should be done sometime around 7:30 PM tomorrow evening.

 

2 – This Friday we are HOME against New Manchester High School for Homecoming.  Friday is also a Digital Learning Day in the district.  Students should plan to be at SPHS no later than 6 PM.  Due to homecoming, we will plan to perform our regular halftime show at the end of the football game.  We have quite a few slots still available in the concession stand for Friday.  Parents – remember, we ask that everyone works one throughout the school year.  Thank you all for helping us!

 

3 – Next Monday is our Marching Band Exhibition which will be hosted at SPHS.  Parents – we do still have a few volunteer spots available through Cut Time.  As a reminder, we plan to close our concession stand early so that all of our parents can see our band perform that evening.  STUDENTS in the band should plan to stay after school with us on Monday.  Here is our schedule:
