Reminder. Let's try to keep conferences between 5-7 minutes a piece. Some of our parents spent enough time in the hallway during their time in school. 😁

For Parent Teacher Conferences Tonight: Unfortunetly, we have two teachers that are home sick. Mrs. Muller and Mrs. Prelle will not be available tonight.

Reminder! Parent/Teacher conferences are tonight from 4;00- 7:00. We would like to ask that you be courteous of other parents time and keep conferences to a maximum of 5-7 minutes. This allows all parents to make sure they can speak with all of our teachers so we can brag about how wonderful they are. If you would like more time with a specific teacher we are always more than happy to set up another time to have ongoing conversations. Thank you.

The Lone Star Lady Longhorns will be traveling to Dove Creek for their Regional game on Friday, Feb 1st. They will play at 4PM. When they win they will play again at 10am Saturday, March 2nd against the winner of Arickaree and Cheyenne Wells. The games will not be live-streamed on Stormy Sports because Dove Creek is an NFHS school. Go Lady Longhorns!

HS Track Reminder: No practice tomorrow, Monday the 26th. We will try for Tuesday, weather and gym availability permitting.

Good evening Longhorn fans, for tomorrow's spirit bus we will be taking quite a few students, which is awesome. Just a reminder that the cost to enter the game for students is $5. We will be checking to see if students have that money prior to getting on the bus. If not, they will need to stay at the school. For lunch, concessions will be available or your child can bring a lunch. We are excited to cheer on our boys. At the game, the expectation is for students to be in the gym watching. If they are caught in hallways, common's area, or elsewhere they will spend the rest of their time sitting with the class sponsor and will not be permitted to attend future events. Go Longhorns!

Congratulations to the boys basketball team! They will be moving on to the district semifinals tomorrow. The game will be at Brush High School, and will start at 11:30am. There will be a bus to take students in 7th grade and above to the game. The bus will leave the school at approximately 10:15am. The students would need their own money for admission and food. If you would like to give your student permission to ride the bus and attend the game, please text or call Ashlynne Newton at (303)916-1822 before 1:00pm today. GO LONGHORNS!
