Dear Howe Basketball Fans,
I regret to inform you that due to a significant increase of Covid-19 related quarantines that have a direct relationship to activities, Howe Schools will temporarily restrict access to Home Ballgames through Thanksgiving Break. This is being done in an effort to prevent school closure and support our students in being able to participate in the limited games that will take place over the next eight days. We are planning on streaming the games that are affected by this decision and should have streaming links up this afternoon. We appreciate your support with this tough decision, but the welfare of our students and faculty and our ability to keep school operations going remain our priority.
Feel free to contact me or your school administrator if you have any questions regarding this temporary suspension of fan participation.
Sincerely,
Scott Parks,
Superintendent
Howe Public Schools

Many community-based organizations lack the capacity or resources to meet the needs of the growing population of hungry Americans. Food pantries and other charitable organizations also often run short on food that is age appropriate (e.g., low sodium for seniors), culturally appropriate and/or fresh. Tight economic times have only further
burdened these organizations.
This year the Varsity Cheerleaders will partner with NHS to help close the gap on hunger in this area. We would challenge Howe Schools to collect as many cans as possible November 9th through the 20th. This drive challenges our student body to give back to those in need in our community. All items collected will be donated to local food banks in this area.
THE CLASSES WHO COLLECT THE MOST CANS WILL WIN POPSICLES! THEY NEED A MINIMUM OF 20 CANS TO QUALIFY. WE WILL ONLY ACCEPT CANS THAT ARE NOT DENTED, HAVE LABELS, AND HAVE NOT EXPIRED.


Update on Wright City HS game (11/6 6 pm at Wright City) tickets: Each player will be given two tickets for Friday's ballgames; any unused tickets will be provided to our cheerleaders. Tickets must be presented upon entry to game. This ticketing process is isolated to Wright City's game only. #HPSLions
