Attention Families:
This is a friendly reminder that we must have a note or phone call from a parent/guardian to allow your child to ride the bus home to a different location other than their normal drop off. This includes if they are not riding the bus and are going to be a car rider.
Please call no later than 2PM. If we don't have a note or phone call, the student will be required to ride their normal bus route and be dropped off at home.
Thank you for your cooperation.

15 Trojans and Lady Trojans ran at Woodlawn on Saturday morning going against stiff competition as they faced several county schools, but several outside the county as well which included the Class L Salem Wildcats.
The Bluford-Farrington runners were undeterred, with 10 of our 15 runners taking home medals, all 15 kids shattering their expected times for the day, the girls varsity squad pulling together a very nice 3rd place finish, and the boys varsity squad stepping up and pulling out the upset over the class L school, taking home 1st place in a 47-48 win!(lowest score wins)
Full Results are below(I apologize for any misspelling of names!) I cannot emphasize enough how great all these kids ran!

Thank you to everyone who has completed our School Store Fundraiser. Our school is currently at over 60% completion rate. If you haven't filled it out yet, but still want to, there is still time. I have ordered more prizes that will be here next week. I will continue to collect completed prize codes through next Friday.
I do not know if this has EVER happened before but it is at least very rare. Our JH baseball and softball teams both won today at Wayne City with each pitcher throwing a no hitter in their respective games. You read that right. 2 no hitters we threw today. Maryn Sneed struck out 11 in her no hitter, while Owen Burke struck.out 21 in his gem. All I can say is WOW!
Webber HS is sponsoring our first blood drive for the new school year on Wednesday, September 6th from 1-5pm in the Grade School Gym. Donating blood helps earn our senior Beta Members scholarships to use towards their college education. We hope to see you there!
Results from Murphysboro: Full 5K Race
Posted by Coach JP
31 schools were represented, with 18 teams on the boys side sporting full squads. A solid 8th place finish in a tough field for the boys, as well as PRs across the board for the boys and girls. 8th is the best the boys have ever finished at Murphysboro, and all the boys agreed they could have had better races. Nothing better than a good result and room to improve. Both girls had major PRs at the course. The next meet will be next Thursday at West Frankfort.
