A special thank you goes to our bus driver for her quick actions in protecting our kids, as well as to our coaching staff for their professionalism and clear communication throughout the event. We also appreciate our families for their patience and support as we managed the logistics to keep everyone safe. Tonight, let’s all give our kids and loved ones a few extra hugs. Tomorrow, our girls' soccer team will depart at noon for their rescheduled 5 PM state game at Cle Elum-Roslyn High School. Go Braves!

Please feel free to reach out for any assistance you or your student may need. Thank you for your continued patience and support as we come together to care for our Brave community.
