-We must have at least 25 students on the Pep Bus for it to make.
-Cost will be $10. This will cover the cost of the ticket and any other fees.
-You will need to sign up today in the HS office and pay your $10 by 2:30 this afternoon.
-If the Pep Bus doesn't make, you will be refunded your money.
-You will also need a Parent/Guardian call the HS Office today and give permission to ride the Pep Bus.
-This is for 10-12 grade only.
I want to encourage anyone that would like to support our Lady Bearcat Volleyball Team to sign up for the Pep Bus and help the Team to a State Championship.

Brookland 7th-12th grade will continue to allow students the opportunity to release at 11:00 on Thursday, October 27th. If you would like your child to check out at this time, please fill out the new form that was sent to the parent email groups. Buses will be running at the normal times if you prefer that your child remain at school the full day.
