After Prom:

We need anyone that thinks they might possibly attend after prom to email or stop by Coach B's room to get their name on the list. Attending after prom costs nothing. There will be free food, a coffee bar, dirty soda bar, money, gift cards, and tons of prizes given away. There will also be games, karaoke, a mechanical bull, obstacle course, axe throwing, blow ups, and casino games. You don't want to miss out on the fun.

Tattoo a Teacher fundraiser: 

Stop by Coach B's room and purchase tattoos for your favorite teacher April 7-14th. Teachers will reveal their tattoos next Wednesday, April 15th.
