Reminder: Students begin the 2nd semester Thursday, January 4! This is also the 1st day of the Coach Thompson Memorial Invitational Basketball Tournament. Students in grades 6-12 are able to buy their lunch from the concession stand. Lunch must be eaten in the cafeteria. If your student plans to buy from the concession stand, please send money with them to school on those days to avoid students being called out of class to the office. Thank you! We are looking forward to a great 2nd semester!

Medford Basketball Tournament streamed online- All the games will be streamed live and anyone can watch and listen on their phone, computer, tablet or video device by going to KALVRadio.com. None of kalvradio.com is case sensitive. That will take you to our site where you will see, on the home page, the banner you see below. When one clicks their cursor and that banner they will go to the broadcast. All the games will have an introductory header and will be archived so one can scroll down through them to find the one they wish to watch anytime and as often as they wish to do so.
