Here's a SWEET bit of information for you! During today's lunches in the cafeteria, students were able to win coupons for a Free Medium Slush from Sonic! Just a note: the date on the coupon says it expires December 31, 2024, but Sonic's manager has assured us that the coupons will be honored. Yay for slushes!

The ALE classes went to the Poteet Special Olympics on April 4, 2025. They participated in field events such as javelin, shot put throw, softball throw, tennis ball throw, long jump, and running events. These kids are winners every day, but especially this day! Congratulations, students!
