DENTON (8/24/05) - The University of North Texas Athletics Department and the Denton Independent School District are sponsoring a special promotion for the November 5th football game to encourage and promote student success. All DISD Elementary students who were placed on the A/B honor roll for the first six weeks of school received a free ticket to the Mean Green’s November 5th game versus Louisiana-Lafayette.

Students who participate in this promotion and their parents will be honored at the game via a video board presentation and announcements. This year, over 8,000 students in the DISD made the honor roll.

For more information, call 940-369-7169.

We gave out tickets this week and I had plenty of extra so I gave every kid a ticket and encouraged them to go. I talked about the kidzone place and that got all of them excited. We are sending flyers home again on Friday to remind them of this weekend. This could be a huge weekend if their parents will take them to the game.

Why not? Every game from here on out is a must win that could set up a big homecoming/conference championship

What is the attitude around campus with the students?

The students I've talked to don't like the losing, but they figure that UNT can still win this weekend. I guess that the students still believe in the team, but their patience may be waning and might just be gone if DD coughs up a few more losses.
