If you see us looking confused, it’s just because we’re transitioning from baseball/softball to basketball while cross country is running miles around us and Homecoming prep is in full swing. 😅
Open gyms are poppin', clubs are officially starting, and coffee intake is at an all-time high. Go Wildcats! 🐾

Sharing the Investment
Did you know? If the One-Cent Tax is approved, nearly 60% of that additional revenue would come from visitors and travelers, not Tazewell County residents.
Revenue from qualifying purchases would directly support our local schools—helping fund critical safety improvements and facility upgrades.
This means non-residents contribute to our schools, easing the financial burden on Tazewell County property taxpayers while ensuring our students and community benefit from strong, modern schools.
Learn more about how this request could benefit students, staff and our school community by visiting tazewellforstudents.com or contacting us directly.
Good morning, Wildcat Families. Please remember to turn in your forms for the Dental Sealants program if you would like your student to participate. Forms are due by Sept. 17th.
🏀 Girls Basketball Tryouts start Monday!
Requirements to make the team:
Show up both days (showing up in spirit unfortunately does not count).
Bring a current school physical (proof from your doctor that you can run back and forth).
⚾ 1st Regional Baseball Game is taking place this Thursday! Come cheer on the team (and bring your best voice for the team).
🏀 1st Boys Basketball Open Gym hits the court on Friday!
🚗 Parents & Drivers: With all these practices kicking off, please double-check your pickup times—nobody wants to set the school record for "longest time spent sitting on the curb waiting for a ride."
