Brockett Elementary recently organized a family service project to kick off the giving season. During the event, families came together to pack blessing bags filled with personal care items. To add a personal touch, holiday cards were enclosed in each bag. The generosity of the families resulted in over 200 bags being donated to Our Daily Bread.

Over the weekend, Fuller Elementary hosted a festive event to mark the start of the holiday season. The highlight of the event was breakfast with Santa, which brought families together for a fun-filled morning. We would like to express our gratitude to our partners at Home Depot for their assistance creating beautiful ornaments. #ChapFamily

Coach Smith Reports: Dec. 8 Aubrey 55 Walnut Grove 77 We came out struggling offensively and had a hard time matching their intensity at the beginning of the game. We are going to need to play much better team defense against teams like this in order to slow them down. I believe we will grow from this and it will be a game that makes us better for our upcoming district play.

Coach Dumond Reports: Tonight was the first night of opening scrimmages for the high school soccer season! The Aubrey Varsity Boys played a grueling defensive match leading to a 0-0 halftime score while dominating possession in the first half. During the second half, both teams had several counterattack opportunities, but late in the game Carrollton Ranchview scored to take the 1-0 lead. Aubrey battled out and came up just short as this would be the final score. Please come support them next week as they take on Sanger on Friday at Sanger High School.
