Purchase your 24-25 yearbook! $70 until November 22. Price will then change to $80 until February 10

There will be a fan bus traveling to Saraland on Friday for our playoff game. There will be a $25.00 cost to secure your seat on the bus. (Parents are $50) Students will also need to separately purchase a ticket to the game through GoFan and bring any money for food, etc.
There are a limited number of seats so it is first come first serve. We will call students beginning at 9:30 today to pay for the fan bus. If seats remain, we will have another opportunity on Wednesday.
Once students have secured their seat on the fan bus, they will need a completed permission to travel form on file as well.
The bus will be leaving around 2pm and will return after the game. Arrival will be around 2am.
