ONLINE SPORTS REGISTRATION FOR SOCCER, CROSS COUNTRY AND VOLLEYBALL
Registration for boys soccer (grades 7 and 8), girls soccer (grades 7 and 8), cross country (girls and boys in grades 3 through 8) and volleyball (girls and boys in grades 7 and 8) is open.
An annual sports physical form must be completed and on file with the nurses before your child can participate in any sports activity.
As the soccer and cross country seasons begin shortly after school opens in early September, we would appreciate if you could register for these sports soon. If not enough 7th and 8th grade students register for soccer in the next few weeks, registration will then be opened to 6th graders.
If you are interested in coaching soccer or volleyball or if you have any questions, please contact Kevin Bopp at
