Winter Sports Apparel
The Winter Sports apparel store is open. Some of these can be personalized with a name and number on the back of the clothing. This store closes in two weeks but then we will open it back up when HS winter sports starts in case anyone wants to personalize the numbers after jerseys are handed out.

Community Forum
Hay Springs School will be hosting a Public Forum on Monday, October 20th at 6:30 p.m. in the Hay Springs Auditorium.
All community members, parents, and stakeholders are invited to attend.
We will be addressing the following topics:
25-26 tax rate
Curriculum updates
Student counts
Investments/upgrades in the school
Calendar
There will be a question and answer session at the end. Please feel free to bring your questions.
Operational Norms
While we will be discussing school finance, facilities, academics- this forum will not be an appropriate venue to discuss specific concerns with individual teachers, students or coaches. I encourage you to bring any of those types of concerns up with the appropriate staff member or administrator.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact George Clear at 638-4434.
