Musquodoboit Rural High

December 20th, 2018

CAUTION!!! We have had a call from the Department of Lands and Forests staff next door, letting us know that some of our students are going up behind the elementary school and playing on the ice during lunch hour. This is a concern because the pond is not completely frozen and may still be unsafe in certain areas where the ice is thinner. They are asking that students stay off the ice for their own safety. We would like to remind all Grade 7 & 8 students that you are not permitted to leave school property during the school day unless you are picked up and signed out by a Parent or Guardian.

SENIOR BOYS BASKETBALL There will be Senior Boys Basketball practice Friday from 5-7pm.

SENIOR GIRLS BASKETBALL VS. MUSTANGS ALUMNI There will be a Senior Girls Basketball game today at 5:30pm. The girls will be playing host against girls Mustangs alumni! Come on out to support our girls and see some former Mustang stars! Donations to help support our Senior Girls this year are welcomed.
