James Clemens students will have a chance to ride to Oak Mountain for the Jets’ first football playoff game in the school’s history on Nov. 7.

For $20 and a parent signature on a form available to students, attendees will receive a chaperoned bus ride and pre-paid ticket to the first round of the playoffs. Money is due by the end of the day on Wednesday, Nov. 5 to either the front office or at the Landing during lunch.

Spaces are limited and not guaranteed. Priority will be given first to seniors, then juniors, sophomores and freshmen. Money will be refunded as needed.

On Friday, students will report to the lunchroom at 3:27 to gather before the buses leave at 4:30. Confetti, noisemakers and white powder are not permitted but students are asked to dress in white for the game.
