turning to our community for support. If you would like to help out with this campaign you can make a
donation through the School Cash Online: https://knoxschools.schoolcashonline.com/.

their individual talents! This event will also feature performances by our two acapella groups ‘B Natural’ and
‘Off the Chain’. Enjoy a warm cup of coffee and a sweet snack (donated from local businesses) while you listen
to your favorite choir students perform. You won’t want to miss it! The event is Friday, March 5 at 7:00pm in
the CTE Parking Lot.

will be held outside in the Bearden CTE parking lot. Attendees will be asked to provide their own seating
options (lawn chair) to be seated outside. These tickets cost $5 per person. Alternatively, if you are attending
with a larger social bubble (households, family etc.) or if you would like to ensure your comfort from the
elements - you may also attend in your car for $20 per car. If you choose to attend this way, you will be given
an FM radio frequency to tune your car radio and listen to the performers through the speakers in your car!

Warm Weather Reminders
Please help us in reminding and thanking our students for staying strong with what they’ve done all year:
wearing masks, hats and hoodies off from 8-3:30, shorts that are actually visible, shirts with sleeves, no
outside food or drink (COVID restrictions continue), no food deliveries (COVID yet again), picking up their trash
when eating outside, school starts at 8:30, and that students need a note to check-out or leave school during
the school day. And if they tell you there is a skip day for any grade level, that is wishful thinking! Thank you!
