  • Spring Sports Physicals

    Ms. Kigin will begin clearing students for spring sports on Monday, February 6 after school.  If you are not able to stay after school, you will have a different option offered on February 16 and 17th. More information to come.  If you are trying out for Lacrosse, you MUST take the computerized baseline test prior to going to practice on the first day.  Sign up to take the test on the door outside Ms. Kigin's office: Room 23.  There is a list of students posted who have already taken the baseline test and will not have to take it again until next year or the year after.  Make sure you show up for the time you signed up for!!  Tryouts for most sports will begin on February 21 after school.  Get cleared EARLY!  See you after school starting Monday!!
