Dear JH Parents,
Due to the number of students not participating in JH Sports last year & the way our schedule is built for this year, we have decided ALL students will stay in JH Sports practice. We don't have enough empty seats in the classes they have gone to in the past in place of JH Sports. With that being said, If your student doesn't want to participate in the sport, they will be asked to be student managers & support the team. They are not required to travel, suit up, or practice, but will do some stretching & running with the team. There will be days this time is treated solely as a PE class. We will communicate that to them so they know where to report each day. Some people might read this w/ dread thinking about their student who doesn't like sports. However, we feel this is also a great opportunity to create relationships, connections, & build school spirit. I would encourage all parents to talk with your students about activities & encourage them to get out of their comfort zone & try new things. Please know we are working to try to make it so they have PE every day instead of having to go to the JH sports practice if they don't want to play. If you have any questions please contact me at the school. Thanks! Mr Marquez

It was a great day of professional development for the new elementary science curriculum! We are excited and ready for our kids to come next week. Go Buffs!!!
