Dear students and families,
The AAA sent an email out saying every ticket for Friday Night will be sold through this website. https://gofan.co/app/events/149473
I have sent the link to the football coaches for them to push out to their athletes. I would give the athletes today and tomorrow to buy their own tickets. On Thursday, we push the tickets out to the public.
There will be no cash exchanged, every ticket needs to be bought online. Friday night at the gate, we will not be accepting cash. We will have the link available at the ticket booth for those who did not buy beforehand.
Our capacity is 500 on the home side, 200 on the visitor side.
Come out and support the COMETS!
You may have to copy and paste the link in your browsers to work. Also the link is in your students' emails. Thanks for your support.

Today is Young Readers Day, which recognizes the joys and benefits of reading. Books open a world of imagination and knowledge to readers every day and it is important we instill a love of reading into our children at an early age. #pcssdproud #equityandexcellence

November is Native American Heritage Month. The U.S. government recognizes nearly 600 Indian tribes in the contiguous 48 states and Alaska. Several rituals are tribe specific, but some cross tribe boundaries, including pow wows, the stomp dance, and drum circles.
November is Child Safety Protection Month. The Centers for Disease Control reports children between ages 1-4 have the highest rate of poisoning. Parents should keep cleaning supplies and medications are put away and out of the reach of children. #pcssdproud #equiityandexcellence
