We are thrilled to announce the return of Little Cats basketball this year! This program is open to all students in grades K-6 and promises to be a fantastic opportunity for skill development. With a focus on fun and improving ball handling abilities, our non-competitive practices will be held right after school in the High School gym or cafeteria from 3:30-4:30.

Get ready to showcase your skills at several exciting girls' and boys' basketball games! For just $35, participants will receive a T-shirt and a basketball to keep. Join us for an amazing season of basketball fun!

🌟 Bobcat Pride Moment! 🌟

Since the 2020–2021 school year, Florence High School students have earned an incredible 282 college credits through UW–Green Bay, saving their families a total of $156,547.44 in tuition costs! 🎓💚💛

And that’s just from our UW Green Bay — that doesn't include other Dual Enrollment or Early College Credit programs that have been earned credits from other UW schools , NWTC or Bay College.

💚💛 We are grateful everyone is safe.

This morning, our Green Route bus was rear-ended while stopped on US 2. We are so thankful to share that the nine students on board and our driver are all safe and unharmed. No students were loading at the time.

Our bus did exactly what it was designed to do—protect our passengers—and we are grateful everyone arrived at school safely today.

Thank you for keeping our students, staff, and drivers in your thoughts. We are blessed to have such a caring Bobcat community.
