The Season Is Winding Down!

Tomorrow is Junior Longhorn night at Kell HS where the girls will go and watch the varsity play at 5:00 pm at Kell HS.

Saturday is the End of the Year Banquet and I have some awards to give out!! Parents, I sent out an email so please respond to me with how many will be in attendance. The more the better!
