SKOL! and congratulations to Nora Toussaint and Jack Baker, your 2024 Homecoming King and Queen!

Viking Victory Day is almost here! Victory Day is a wonderful event that encourages students with special needs to experience what it is like to play football. Participants take part in drills, score touchdowns, wear a varsity jersey, and experience a "starting line-up tunnel."
The smiles and the joy this event creates for participants is impossible to measure!
Viking Victory Day is Wednesday, Oct. 2, 5:30-6:30 p.m. at the high school stadium. Interested families please RSVP to football head coach Justin Voss at jvoss@isd138.org by October 1. See included event flier for more details.

Pickleball Palooza is next Wednesday and we've had so much interest in the past 2 years that we created a pre-registration form. Click this link to sign up!: https://forms.gle/aqChn4g6v3i9fECd9
