SCBL Tournament- UPDATE!!!
The schedule has been changed for the SCBL basketball tournament and tomorrow's middle school basketball games at South Haven. The change has been done to prevent playing on Saturday, which has a high chance for snowy, icy, cold, and windy weather. The middle school basketball games at South Haven scheduled for tomorrow, January 17th has been postponed to Tuesday, January 22nd, due to an official shortage. The SCBL tournament will now be played at two sites tomorrow and Friday: Udall and Cowley County Community College. The schedule for the tournament games are listed below. The girls will play at Cowley tomorrow against Flinthills at approximately 4:00 PM, and will be dismissed at 2:00 PM and leave at 2:15 PM. The boys will play against Cedar Vale/Dexter at Udall tomorrow at approximately 8:30 PM. I will have Friday's times and locations after tomorrow's games. We will also be honoring the academic all-league team members that will be at Udall on Friday. I will have the exact time for the presentation tomorrow.

ACT and Workkeys in February
Juniors will be taking the ACT test on February 20th. It is free for all juniors. Any senior that has never taken the test will be able to take the test as well. The ACT is a standardized test that measures a student's skills in five core areas: English, math, reading, science, and writing (optional). Students in grades 11 and 12 take the ACT so that they can submit their scores to colleges as part of the college application process.
Juniors and Seniors will be taking the Workkeys test on February 21. The ACT WorkKeys is a skills assessment test for those who are interested in or are currently working for employers that place an emphasis on the National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC), which is the credential achieved by those who successfully complete the exam.
Both of these will benefit our students and we are excited to be able to offer them!
EAGLE PRIDE!
Flu Season Reminder
As Flu Season approaches just a quick reminder--
Kansas Department of Health has implemented a new policy regarding Influenza A or B . There is a 7 day exclusion period from school from the day SYMPTOMS appear. Students and staff should also be fever free and feeling well before returning to school. ** Remember this is seven days from symptoms, not the official diagnosis of Influenza from a physician.
