There's a lot happening at SMS as we prepare for another exciting school year. Many people have been wondering when practice is going to begin for the fall activities (football, volleyball, and cross country).
Football and volleyball will begin on Thursday, August 23rd. Cross country athletes have the option of practicing with the high school team. They begin practice this Friday, the 10th. Middle school cross country practice begins on Thursday, August 23rd at 5:30.
There is a parent meeting for all who plan to participate in fall activities on Monday, August 20th in the commons area of Spearfish Middle School at 6:30 pm. We will review general eligibility and participation guidelines and you'll have a chance to meet with coaches and pick up practice and game schedules.
Along those lines, information related to SMS activities can be found in a couple of new places this year. An SMS events calendar has been added to the SMS web page. You can find it on the SMS home page (http://spearfish.k12.sd.us/sms/index.html), or on my web page (http://www.spearfish.k12.sd.us/~kodea/index.html).
In the near future, we will also be adding SMS activity schedules to the district calendar. Hopefully these additional tools will help everyone stay informed of all the great happenings here at SMS.
Remember, in order to participate in any athletic activity, students must have a sports physical. You can turn paperwork into the SMS office, or you can bring it with you on the 20th.
