🔴 Homecoming 2025 is fast approaching! 🔴

The Minatare Cheer Squad is excited to once again offer Spirit Pants!!

The Spirit Pants Workshop will be Wednesday, August 27th, from 6:45 to 7:45 pm (following the Homecoming pep rally) in the Safe Room.

Students and adults are welcome to attend. To ensure adequate supplies, pre-registration (with me) is necessary by Friday August 22nd. A $10 fee per participant is required to cover the costs of fabric paint/ribbon/etc and each person will need to bring their own pants.

I've attached a picture of different styles of Spirit Pants. Pinterest and Google also have tons of ideas. If you'd like to register, comment on our Facebook post or message Darla Grumbles.

Parents,

This is a reminder that all high school students interested in participating in fall sports are required to have a physical on file before they will be allowed to practice. The first day of Fall Practice is Monday, August 11, 2025.
