The Vici Board of Education adopted a new policy on Monday that addresses spectator conduct at school events and activities. The policy can be found under "district documents" on the school website or under the documents link in the Vici School App. We're attaching photos of the policy here for your quick reference as well.
WE VALUE THE ROLE THAT OUR FAMILIES AND SUPPORTERS PLAY IN CREATING A POSITIVE ENVIRONMENT AT VICI SCHOOL EVENTS, AND WE APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT IN MAKING OUR BASKETBALL GAMES ENJOYABLE FOR ALL INVOLVED. THANK YOU FOR HELPING US TEACH VALUABLE LIFE SKILLS LIKE TEAMWORK, RESPECT, SELF-CONTROL AND COMMUNITY.

The Indians Helping Indians Angel Tree has just 4 Angels left on it! Please help us clear the tree as soon as possible, and thank you again for partnering with the teams to bring Christmas to local students and families! Gifts are due back at school by Friday, December 20th. To arrange an evening drop off anytime before the 20th, please contact Coaches Watkins or Leatherman or Dr. Nelson.
Join Pre-K through 4th grade students for a wonderful night of music in the spirit of Christmas! The program begins at 6:30 pm in Jerald Shaw Auditorium!

ALL ANGELS HAVE BEEN LOCATED! Thank you! We are missing some Angels from the Angel Tree, and need to locate them to ensure all of the children receive Christmas gifts. These angels would have been picked up from the PTO Bazaar on Dec. 6th or 7th, and just may not have been signed out in the book. If you took Angel numbers 13, 26, 47 and/or 49, please call Dr. Nelson at 580-938-1565 so we will know that the Angels were just not lost and that these children will receive gifts. Thanks for your help!
