Good morning! Just a reminder that if your child is going to be signed off tomorrow by someone other than a guardian, the office needs a handwritten note with signature who will be signing them off. You may email or text the note to Mrs. Florea by the end of school today. Also, we can drop students off at the Ringgold church on our way back to Tryon, around 2:45. Please let the office or their classroom teacher know tomorrow morning.

After the parade, 7-12 will clean up floats, then there will be a small pep rally about 2:15 p.m. At 2:30 p.m., we will load the bus to leave from Stapleton to take our students to Cody Park. The vans will be loaded at the same time to bring the students, not in sports, back to Tryon. All McPherson County students riding a school vehicle will be at their destination by 3:00 p.m. or shortly after. Please pick students up at this time. If you want, you may sign your child off the bus or van to stay in Stapleton for the games. If you need to send a note for them to stay, the note needs to be into the office by Thursday, September 15th at 3:30 p.m. Please indicate on the note who the child will be released to. Once the student is signed off, the school will not be responsible for them.
