Ms. Kurpiel Speaks on Class Games Being Rescheduledby Rocco Addington '20 This week I interviewed the senior class sponsor, Ms. Kurpiel, about the class games being rescheduled. A lot of students were confused on why the class games were taking place on a Monday because in past years the class games have taken place on Wednesdays during homecoming week. Ms. Kurpiel claimed the games were moved to Monday due to a scheduling error. It has been confirmed that the games will be held September 11th, due to the scheduling error. The error occurred when the Physical Activity Director, Mr. Malcolm, found out that there was a junior high football game scheduled for Wednesday the 13th. The class games will be held at 6pm, at the public school stadium. The entrance fee will be two dollars. If you are a senior and you have purchased a class of 2018 shirt from Ms. Kurpiel, that can be used as your admission ticket. Remember to show up in your color to support your class! Freshman are green, sophomores are yellow, juniors are red, and seniors are blue.
