A reminder that when your child is absent, you need to send either a parent note or a
doctor’s note to school with your child when he/she returns to school. An absence will
be counted as an unexcused absence if a note is not sent to school upon the student
returning. This note should be brought in to the office upon the first day the student is
back from being absent, but it must be brought in by the 3rd day upon return to school.
The Lady Stangs will be playing Westbrook in the area round of the basketball playoffs
on Friday, February 18. This game will be played at Abilene Wylie and begins at
5:30 p.m. Benjamin will be the visiting team.
We will take a fan bus to the game on Friday at Abilene Wylie if there is enough interest.
The fan bus would leave immediately after school on Friday, and it should return by
8:30 p.m. If you are interested in riding the fan bus or your student riding the bus, we
would need to know in the office by 9:00 a.m. on Friday morning. The cost to ride would
be $2.00, and that amount would need to be paid by Friday morning as well. Any
student below 6th grade that might ride the bus must be accompanied by a
parent/guardian. Again, we will only take a fan bus to the game if there is enough
interest in it.
The boys basketball team will be playing Roby in the bi-district round of the basketball
