Parents, Students and Community Members,
We are thrilled to share that we’ve entered Flagler Panthers into the Friday Night 5G Lights promotion! This national initiative from T-Mobile celebrates the spirit of small-town high school football while bringing state-of-the-art technology upgrades to deserving schools across the country. Rarely do these opportunities pop-up for just small schools.
What Does This Mean for Our School? We are now in the running for chance to win the ultimate grand prize package (it could be a game changer for our school). We can also win additional cash prizes and grants throughout the competition. Competitions like this seem far reached, but the things we need to do to show our support only require a small amount of time and engagement (which is a benefit to our kids no matter what).
