Hello Bulldog Families,
We’ve got a busy (and a little bit different) week at Memorial, so here’s what you need to know:
1. Bulldog Competitive Cheer
Our cheer team is headed to the 6A Regional in Stroud this weekend. If you’ve never seen them perform, I highly recommend it—it’s like a high-energy technical show filled with school spirit! We wish them the best of luck as they show off all of their hard work. Details are listed below if you’d like to make the trip.
2. Friday Night Lights
This week, your 3-0 Bulldog football team gets a well-earned bye. That’s right, no game Friday night. So you can either:
-
Spend Friday night actually resting (what a concept).
-
Or, you can spend it rewatching our highlights and preparing for next week’s home game versus Norman North on September 26th.
3. ASVAB Testing
The ASVAB test is coming up next week here at Memorial. If your student is considering a career in the military, this is an important step. Sign-up information is listed below. Think of it as the SAT of service—but with a clearer career path at the end.
4. Blood Drive
Our first semester Blood Drive takes place Monday. Students will need a signed parent/guardian permission slip to participate. Yes, even the 18-year-olds. Technically, they don’t need it legally, but around here we like to err on the side of “Mom should probably know if you’re giving away a pint of blood.” Thanks for helping us keep this process smooth and safe for everyone.
5. Bulldog Band Debut
The Bulldog Band is strutting their stuff this weekend at their first competition at Deer Creek High School. After putting in countless hours this summer and fall, they’re ready to show off their competitive show. Trust me, this is more than just marching in a straight line—these kids are the real deal. Come out and support the “best band in the land!”
Have an AMAZING weekend and we'll see you back here on Monday!
