Athletics/Activities weekly calendar for 8/25-8/30. Good Luck Hornets and Lady Hornets!!

Dear Westran Families,
We have some exciting news! Our school has qualified for a program that will allow our students to eat breakfast and lunch for free! This includes all students in our district. There are a few things that will still come at a cost to you. If your student chooses to get extra milk, it will cost $.40. Middle school and high school students will still have an opportunity to get a la carte items. Those items will also be charged at the regular price. The only free offering will be regular breakfast and lunch.
An important part of this program is that we still have families fill out our free and reduced lunch application. You can get those from the building secretaries at any time. This will help set our numbers during this baseline year. Thank you to our food service director, Teresa McAdams, for making this happen!
It's a great day to be a Hornet!
Mark L. Harvey, Superintendent
