Happy Holidays to all of our Blue Flame family! Wishing you peace, love and joy this holiday season!
Tonight our band booster club is having a gift wrapping fundraiser. Come by the band room between 6 and 9pm to support our band.
Our Fine Arts Department put on an amazing Holiday Showcase today for our students, faculty and staff. The audience was treated to some drama from Mr. Reid’s students, including some fun improv games. The band also performed multiple songs and Dr. Hicks and Mrs. Ginn showed off their students’ pieces of art on the wall of the auditorium. We are so proud of all of our talented Fine Arts students.
Mr. Richards, Mr. Armock and the band put on an excellent Winter Concert tonight! ❄️ Congrats to all who performed on a job well done! 🎉

Reading with the Blue Flame continued this week with several of our winter sports athletes reading to students at PES. Participating student-athletes were Coley Gillian (Basketball), Jacob Santeler (Wrestling), and Hanna Woody (Cheer). Partnering teachers were Mrs. Erin Hunter, Mrs. Jennifer Patterson, and Mrs. Stacie Seaborn. After our student-athletes read festive Christmas books to their elementary friends, they were able to field questions ranging from "How tall are you?" to "What's your favorite Christmas song?" posed by inquiring minds in their audiences. Special thanks to Mrs. Williamson and Mrs. Winchester for their help selecting books and for the use of the Media Center.
