State Volleyball Announcement

For the first time in over 40 years of Laker Volleyball, our Minnewaska volleyball team is heading to the State Tournament! Congratulations to the team and coaches on winning the Section Championship and achieving this incredible milestone!

This is a truly unique opportunity for our players and students, and a special moment for our entire community to come together to support one another. Because we anticipate a large number of students, families, staff, and community members will want to be in attendance to cheer on our Lakers at State, we want to make families aware of changes to the school schedule on Thursday, November 12, and potentially Friday, November 13.

Thursday, November 12:  The team’s first game will be this Thursday, November 12, at 3:00 p.m.  School will dismiss early at 10:45 a.m. at the Elementary School & W.I.N. Academy and at 11:00 a.m. at the Middle School/High School building.

**School-age childcare for students in grades K-3 only will be available for sign-up at Minnewaska Area Elementary until 2:45 p.m. on Thursday, November 12.  There will be no after school care on this day.  Look for more communication to come from the elementary school.

Friday, November 13:  If the Lakers win on Thursday, they will advance to play on Friday. The school schedule will depend on the game time:

• 5:00 p.m. game: School will dismiss early at 12:45 p.m. at the Elementary School & W.I.N. Academy and at 1:00 p.m. at the Middle School/High School

• 7:00 p.m. game: School will operate on its regular schedule.

We will continue to communicate updates as tournament results become available.

Thank you for your flexibility and support as we cheer on our Lakers at State!

GO LAKERS!
