Attention Rocket Athletes and Parents Our Attendance Policy is as follows: A student must be in school all day to participate in a game and/or practice unless approved by the principal. If a student is too sick to come to school, he/she is too sick to play. Students need to be at school before 8:00am. If they arrive after 8:00am, they cannot participate that day. Appointments with proper documentation from the doctor or practitioner will be excused. The public is invited to pay tribute to our local veterans by attending our Veterans Day Program. We will be recognizing the service and sacrifice our veterans have provided and endured for our great nation. Musical selections will be performed by the high school choirs and bands. Refreshments will be served to veterans in the commons before the program begins.
