For those planning on traveling to Serena tonight for the HS Girls Super Sectional game, Serena’s AD is strongly encouraging people to buy tickets from the GoFan link. Tickets are $9.00 and there is no longer a service change when using the app.
Serena’s gym holds around 1100 people and as of 10 am this morning they had already sold 500 tickets.
If they get to a point where seating becomes an issue they will be letting those in who bought tickets online first before general admission.
Below is the link to buy online:

Best of luck tonight ladies and coaches!

I am attaching the menus for March, we are still having supply chain issues so there could be menu changes.

We were made aware this morning about 8:30 a.m. that an activity bus traveling to Bloomington was involved in a one-vehicle accident. The bus ended up off the road on its side. We are not aware of any injuries and have been in contact with all of those on the bus and the parents of all students on the bus. We are assured everyone is safe at this time. Out of an abundance of caution, all of those on the bus were taken to local hospitals. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact the District office.
