March 8-12 Announcements

 Hello Parents!

Here is some information for the upcoming week!

There has been a slight change in the practice schedule that was handed out at the parent meeting. When I first created the schedule, I wasn't aware of a multiple-day soccer tournament that Northridge is hosting next week. For that reason, our practices on Monday and Tuesday, will have to start at 2:30 in order to get our workouts done before the soccer games start. There is also a soccer game on Friday. We will start practice at 2:00 on that day. 

Regarding the meet next week on Wednesday, March 10th. Spectators ARE allowed!!! YAY!!! Please make sure that you are always wearing a mask on school grounds and encouraging your child to wear a mask whenever they are not warming up or competing. In an effort to ensure that all athletes will be present to help set up for the meet, we will be having team pictures taken at 1:00. For those of you who have children at charter schools, they will need to get checked out if they want to be in the picture. Please make sure that team fees are paid so that your child can check out a jersey. If they don't have a jersey, they can still be in the picture but won't be wearing a jersey. They also won't be able to compete in the meet. Below is a list of things that WILL prevent your child from competing on Wednesday and for meets in the future. 

- Not being on Register My Athlete
- Not paying the district fee in the office ($95)
- F's and U's or 2nd term grades below a 2.0

If your child falls into this category on Wednesday but is still planning on competing in future meets, they are still expected to attend our home meet on Wednesday and help run different events. 

Hosting a track meet is a lot of work and has a lot of moving parts that need to run smoothly. If you would like to help with one of the field events, please let me know.
