As we approach about a month out, this will be a good time to give you a Save the Date for our PK-8th Christmas Concert, "SNOWTASTIC!". It will be Monday, December 11th at 2:00 and 7:00 PM. We will have an informal daytime performance that is open to the public at 2:00, with our main formal performance being at 7:00 that evening. Notes on details such as what to wear, when to be there, etc. will be posted by Mr. Lewis on here 2-3 weeks ahead of the concert. And as always, don't forget that you can always find these and other school dates that you need to save on our Events Calendar website page at https://www.alex.k12.ok.us/events.
There is a new scholarship posted on the school website - Counselor portal/Scholarships & Higher Ed/Click for more Scholarships. Seniors don't forget to check out the scholarship page and emails.
It's time for Sophomores to apply to Career Tech, if interested. There are great programs offered and some of them fill up fast. So, get your applications in ASAP. If any students need help they can visit Mrs. Byrne for assistance. The link will take you to the application.
