Get in on the Super Bowl action and support your team! The football team is selling Super Bowl squares to help raise money for new jerseys. Super Bowl squares is a simple game of chance played on a 10x10 grid, where winners are determined by the last digit of each team's score at the end of each quarter. No football knowledge is required to play or win, as numbers are assigned randomly once a grid is full. For just $25 a square, you have a shot at winning cash prizes ranging from $125 to $500! Stop by the high school office and get a square with your name on it, and join the fun! If there are any questions, contact Coach Vandermyde.

For three decades, Mr. Ernst has been a pillar of the Morrison school system, pouring his heart into both teaching and coaching thousands of our students. He has spent his career building us up—now, it’s our turn to lift him up!
Mark recently completed his treatment for lung cancer, showing the same strength and resilience he’s always taught his students. To celebrate his journey and support him with his expenses, we’re hosting a community fundraiser filled with hope, gratitude, and some incredible Mexican food.
How you can help:
• Show Up: Your presence is the best way to show Mark the impact he’s had on all of us.
• Eat Well: Enjoy a delicious meal knowing every bite goes toward a great cause.
• Give Back: Help us ease the burden of medical bills for a man who has given so much to our children.
Let’s come together as a community to honor Mark. We can’t wait to see everyone there!
