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).

How Can You Support?
Show your school spirit! Community involvement is a key part of this contest. Help us by spreading the word on instagram. IF YOU DON’T FOLLOW US do so @flaglerpanthers
Post your favorite school spirit and community involvement memories or football pictures with the following hashtags and tags: #FN5GL, #Sweepstakes, @TMobile, and @flaglerpanthers
You can also post on facebook, hashtag and tag: #FN5GL, #Sweepstakes, @TMobile, @flaglerpanthers and @Arriba-Flagler School District
Stay tuned for voting details and upcoming events where your participation can help us win.
Share your support on social media and encourage friends and family to get involved.

This is a unique opportunity to showcase our school pride and bring lasting benefits to our students and community. We look forward to your enthusiastic support as we compete for this honor.

As always, thank you for your continued support and dedication to our students and school.
