Need a night off from the kids while you prepare for the holidays? Our Junior class has you covered. They're hosting a Parent's Night Off on December 16th, 3:30-8:00pm to raise funds for prom!
The juniors will provide a light dinner, holiday crafts, and entertainment for the evening, so parents can take an evening off before the 2-week holiday break. From now until December 6th, the first student is only $20 and each additional sibling is $10. That's less than $5 an hour for a safe, fun evening of childcare, and all profits support our high school prom!
Register online [tinyurl.com/registerparentsnightdec16] and send in payment to the office by December 6th to lock in your discount. We can only take cash or checks at this time; be sure you send registration information along with your payment. Paper copies of the registration form are available in both offices.
Thank you for your support, and please let the junior class sponsors, Ms. Knight or Coach Hammers know if you have any questions about the event!
Extra Event Details: December 16th, 3:30pm - 8:00pm in the Cafeteria. After December 6th, the price is $30 for the first student and $15 for each additional sibling. All elementary students are welcome, but registration and payment is required by December 14th for students to attend. Again, we can only take cash or checks at this time; please be sure you provide registration information along with your payment.
