Our March Madness Step Challenge winners attended the Heart of Oklahoma baseball tournament hosted by Purcell High School on Thursday. We would like to give a shout-out to Char Page and Felicia Salinas for donating popcorn, drinks, and candy from the concession stand. For many of our students, it was their first time to ever see a baseball game. They enjoyed every minute, and one student said, “This is the best day ever!” #dragonpride #ignite #purcellbaseball
