IHSAA Student-Athlete Tip of the Week: Are you playing high school sports for the pure pleasure of your sport, or are you using your high school experience as a stepping stone to college sports? Getting to the college level can be very challenging. Take football for example. There are 774 college football teams (in all divisions). Most states have anywhere from 200-450 high schools that have a football program. Those numbers show the challenges facing today’s high school athletes who want to move on and play at the college level. This ratio remains about the same, regardless of your sport. The odds are stacked against you. That’s why you should take the time and make the effort to enjoy high school sports. Your sporting days could come to an end at any time!
Any student wanting to apply for free/reduced lunch this school year will need to have the forms filled out and turned in before September 19th. Forms are available in the main office from Mrs. Haney, the bookkeeper.
Any student interested in doing Merit on the Move should contact their guidance counselor. Merit on the Move is an opportunity to earn a credit you are missing after school with an Apex course. Merit on the Move will start TOMORROW at 3:45 p.m. in the Apex Lab, room 1060. There are still a few spots open. If you are interested, talk to your counselor ASAP. The class meets Wednesdays and Thursdays after school in the Apex room.
