Tonight's game time has changed to 6:00 pm due to the winter weather and an attempt to get fans and players off of the roads earlier. Game location is still Sulphur Springs High School.
After looking at latest forecasts, freezing drizzle is expected in early morning hours. We want to ensure our buses have plenty of time to safely make routes. Pickup times will be 2-hours delayed. Classes begin at 10 a.m. Be safe! If a change to this is made, that would be announced in the morning.
This is the ticket information for Thursday’s game at Sulphur Springs. We are allowed 200 fans. Parents have already had the opportunity, so it is open to the public.

Our middle school Academic Quiz team has won Round 2 of their Academic Rodeo, sponsored by the East Texas State Fair Association.
Academic Challenge Quiz is a fast paced (face to face and rapid fire) quiz bowl. Questions can be from Current Events, Literature, Fine Arts, Geography, History and Social Science, Language and Vocabulary, Math, Potpourri, and Science. They even ask questions over the competing school districts' school history and local history.
Mrs. Alicia Stewart is the academic coach, and participants are Braden Rankin, Olivia Morrison, Collin Nichols, Tristan Leddy, Irelyn Stone, and Isaac Hartin.
Congratulations to each of you - and good luck in your finals round next Friday, January 29th.
In order to ensure the safety of students and staff, AGISD will be closed tomorrow (Monday). Even if roads are drivable, there is the potential of overnight freezing. Also, many of our employees drive in from the East or South which include areas having more issues.
The school board meeting on Monday night will remain scheduled at 6:00 p.m.
Stay safe and warm, Panthers!

Pass out time is around 11:00 am, and there should be enough food products to distribute to 400-500 families.
A reminder regarding this Friday.
When a student is required to go into quarantine, they will be asked to stay home from school (and preferably any public places) for 14 days. While at home, students need to check in everyday with every class through Google Classroom. They are required to check in by completing the Bell Ringer (they have been doing this in class everyday already). They are still responsible for assignments sent in their Google Classroom. Should teachers be able to do so, they may be asked to "attend" class through Google Meet. Once students have completed their quarantine with no symptoms, they may return to campus and must see the Nurse to be screened before going to class.
