Couple items for Saturdays games
We are under construction for a high school addition so access to the field is limited. It is about a 2 block walk from the parking lot to homeplate. We only have room for about 5 cars for senior citizens or handicapped to pull in by the outfield fence. Please check in with the ticket taker if you will need to utilize that. Buses will need to drop kids off in the parking lot next to the entrance gate.
The IHSAA will be using Hometown Ticketing. We will not be allowing cash sales at the gate, all tickets must be purchased through Hometown Ticketing. Tickets are $6. Tickets will go on sale at Wednesday, July 7th at 9 a.m.
Fans can go to the ticket page on the IHSAA website to purchase tickets.

Mrs. Hansen's 4th grade class were 'da bomb' by being the one & only elementary class that had all library books returned by the deadline! They were treated with Bomb Pops!! Great Job Spartans!!!

Due to the forecast for Friday and in trying to help parents with scheduling, we have decided to postpone the elementary track and field day until Monday, May 17th. Hopefully, the weather will be more cooperative for us!! Thank you for your understanding.
