Clarification
Grade 8 students and lunch:
Each grade level is issued a set number of lunch time PE / field equipment: 2-basketballs, 1- football, 1-frisbie, and 2- soccer balls.
Students are NOT to go to the PE department, take another grades equipment, or to PE teachers for equipment. The eighth grade collection of items are either with Mr. Saich, Mr. Small or Mr. Carozza on a weekly rotating schedule depending on who has field duty.
If you take one of the items – basketball etc. -YOU are responsible for returning that item and not leaving it on the field or court.
If they are not returned, you will not have the equipment.
Students are NOT to play tackle football – there is no safety equipment, a lack of training, and a huge variation of size and skill of players – all can play touch.
Attention all CISSA Participants:
We know you are eager to start games and practices right after school. But… you cannot leave bags, clothes, LAPTOPS!!! in the hallway of the gym building.
Starting today, all CISSA participants are asked to place backpacks and computers in their lockers when participating in after school sports.
