Hope squad meets tomorrow
Join us at Panda Express tomorrow night
Congratulations to the Ruckel Academic Team for their success this last weekend at the first competition of the year. We hosted for the first time in a few years, and other teams commented on how smoothly everything went. This is largely because of your students and all the effort they put into setting everything up! Thank you also to all the volunteers that helped!
Our Junior Varsity team placed 3rd while our Varsity team placed 2nd. Congrats to all our student academics! I am very proud of all of you and the example you were for Ruckel!
Our next competition is Saturday, December 7th at Liza Jackson.
