  • Blue Crew will host a variety show in the gym Dec. 7. Students may sign up to perform by picking up a form in the front office starting Fri., Nov. 9. Forms must be turned in by Nov. 15. All acts except for stand-up comedy will be allowed. Students may perform by themselves, but we encourage group performances due to time limits.

The results are used to help plan substance abuse prevention strategies and programs in our community. It is an anonymous survey, and participation is voluntary.
