Last night, the Heritage Mountaineers football team dominated their cross-town rivals William Blount 42-16. The Mountaineers went up 12-0 within the first 2 minutes of the game thanks to an opening kickoff return TD from Zack Morris, followed by an onside kick recovery and subsequent TD run from Levi Sexton.
Anchored by the offensive line, the Mountaineer offense continued its explosive night adding 30 more points, including 2 long TD passes from Levi Sexton to Zack Morris. Defensively, the Mountaineers stymied the Mini Governor offense, with several tackles for loss, and interceptions by Liam Bailey and Brodie Franklin, which helped the team secure the victory!
The 2-1 Mountaineers take on North Middle School next week in Lenoir City.

Dear Parents and Guardians,
We want to emphasize the importance of your student being present and engaged at school for the entire school day whenever possible.
When students are checked out early, they miss valuable classroom instruction, assignments, discussions, and opportunities to ask questions and receive support from their teachers. Even missing one or two class periods can make it difficult for students to keep up with their coursework and can have a direct impact on their grades and academic progress.
Please also be aware that students are counted absent for each class period they miss, including class periods missed due to an early checkout. These missed instructional minutes add up over time.
We understand that appointments, emergencies, and other circumstances sometimes make an early checkout necessary. However, when possible, we strongly encourage families to schedule appointments and other activities outside of school hours so students can remain at school for the full instructional day.
Every class period matters, and every minute of instruction counts. Helping your student attend school for the full day is one of the simplest ways you can support their academic success.
Thank you for your continued partnership and for helping us ensure that our students have every opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed..
If you have any attendance questions, please contact Vickie Stephens at (865) 980-1300 or vickie.stephens@blountk12.org
