CAVALIER Chronicle
WELCOME TO THE 22-23 SCHOOL YEAR

It's a Great Week to be a Cavalier!
Happy Sunday Cavalier Families!
We don't know about you, but we've really enjoyed these fall temperatures!
Congratulations to our 8th grade Cavalier football team on winning the District Championship! We are proud of the effort that they put in this season. Thank you to our coaches, Quincy Francis and William Kirshner for all of the time and care that you put in for our young men.
This month is Month of the Military Family and we would like to celebrate our families with an evening event. Please see the permission slip below from our Parent Liaison, Twila Hill. You can contact her or Rodney Cooper if you have any questions.
We are looking forward to a Cav-tastic week with your students!

Parents/Guardians should only be driving in the yellow area indicated on the map.
The red area is for buses only. Parents who enter the red area are putting students and staff at risk as there is limited visibility when buses are present.
