The Blue Note will continue to be distributed via EubieMail.  The most recent Blue Note, along with past issues, is available here at the Blake High School PTSA website.  Be sure to visit the PTSA page for the latest news about Blake PTSA and how you can contribute to the school, community affairs, and your child’s education.
