August 4, 2014

Hello Families,
Here is a link if you are interested in trying out for sports.
All 5/6 students can tryout for the Athletics Program.  In the fall, we have Volleyball and Flag Football afterschool and cross country in the morning.  The students must go towww.asuprepathletics.com and fill out a registration form before tryouts.  They also must have a physical before tryouts.  All of the other paperwork and fees can be paid after they are selected for the team.
The students will walk from the ES to the high school area.  The FFB meets in the old PAC, now called Cedar Hall.  The VB meets (at least for now) at the Sun Devil Fitness Center.
If possible, could each of the 5/6 teachers put an additional page on the weebly site... labeled Athletics.  Then, just put a link to www.asuprepathletics.com on the page.
