The Lake Asbury Junior Flag Football team opened the season with a big win over Green Cove Junior, powered by an explosive offense and a defense that refused to give in.
The Tigers set the tone early, attacking the field with confidence and speed, then locking down on the other side of the ball to control the game from start to finish.
Great start to the season! Go Tigers!

LAJH Flag Football Tryouts
The backpacks are packed, and the alarms are set! 🎒⏰
As our students head back to class tomorrow morning for the first day of the new school year, it’s the perfect time for a quick refresher on getting to school safely. Whether you walk, ride, or drive, we all play a part in keeping our school community safe.
Check out these tips to help us all arrive safe:
🚶♂️ WALK SAFE!
Heads Up, Phone Down! Stay alert and aware of your surroundings.
Use sidewalks and cross only at corners and crosswalks.
Look LEFT-RIGHT-LEFT before crossing.
Be seen!
🚲 RIDE SAFE! (Bikes, E-Bikes, & E-Scooters)
Helmet On: Wear a helmet—it’s the LAW for riders under 16!
Obey all traffic laws, stop signs, and traffic lights.
Ride with traffic, stay off your phone, and yield to walkers on the sidewalk.
E-Riders: You are fast and quiet. Drivers don't always expect you—be extra alert and slow down at intersections!
🚌 BUS SAFE!
Wait in a safe place well away from the road.
Board or cross ONLY when the driver gives you the "OK" signal.
Stay seated and keep the aisle clear.
Drivers: Please review the "School Bus Safety Rules" graphic below so you know exactly when you MUST stop!
🚗 DRIVE SAFE!
Slow down, especially in school zones.
Expect the unexpected—look twice for kids at every intersection, driveway, and crosswalk.
Give bicyclists at least 3 feet of clearance.
Put the phone away, no texting, and focus on the road.
Let's work together to make the first day back a safe one. Share this post with your students and neighbors to help spread the word!
Be Seen. Be Smart. Be Safe.
We can't wait to see you tomorrow! 📚✨
