New School Spirit Wear and First Day Sales

We are excited to offer 2 new styles of spirit wear this year! In addition to the t-shirts we have had in previous years, we will have available for order a baseball-style tee and a hoodie!



On the first day of school (July 26 for A, B, and C tracks and August 15 for D track), we will have our usual style of t-shirt for sale (we will accept cash, check, or credit card).


We will also have a limited number of baseball tees in adult sizes at that time. Order forms for baseball tees and hoodies will be available. These items can also be ordered on our website. The deadline for these orders is September 1. In order for us to get these items delivered before the weather gets too cold (we hope), we will need to place the order at that time and no late orders will be accepted unfortunately. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. **If you have multiple children at Foothills, only one child's name/grade/teacher is necessary.**

D track families, don't worry, we have a separate set of shirts waiting for you. See you in August!
