At this year's Veterans Day Program, we will use our video board to post pictures of veterans who are a special part of our Redhawk Family. Do you have close friends or family members in the armed forces that you'd like to honor on Veterans Day?
Use this form to send us a picture of your special veteran, letting us know your relationship to them: https://forms.gle/LBL7HPTLLnKvxV7Z9

Our football team has earned a spot in the first round of playoffs in Philip, and we couldn’t be more proud of their hard work and determination this season!
To get our players, cheerleaders, coaches, and gear there safely and comfortably, we are looking to charter a bus — but we need your help. The total cost is $3,700, and we are currently seeking sponsors to help cover this expense.
Whether you're able to contribute the full amount or just a portion, every bit helps and goes directly toward supporting our student-athletes in this exciting opportunity.
If you're interested in sponsoring or would like more information, please contact: CeCe Louwagie - Estelline Activities Director
