Monday, January 15th will be a NO SCHOOL DAY!
We will go on as scheduled for today and complete the first round of the GBB tournament. Games will begin promptly at 3:30 with starting lineups, announcements, national anthem beginning about 3:24 pm. We will be doing an announcement to recognize all officials during the first two days of the tournament.
