Student Information for 6th and 7th Grade Field Days

Students will need to come to school dressed in dress code.  Don't forget that shorts must come to the top of the knee.  T-shirts will be allowed and will be put on before Field Day begins.  Teachers typically have the kids choose a solid color to represent their team.


Students may not attend Field Day if they have received an OSS Referral (Out of School Suspension) or more than two ISS (In School Suspension) referrals between the dates of April 12th and May 29th.  These students will be expected to stay inside with an adult and complete an assignment.

Attention Football Players ***New Information.***

 

It was nice to meet and talk with so many of you the other night.  There were a few important questions that I had to check up on so I wanted to pass along some important information to you.

 
Before anyone participates in any summer conditioning or fall practices I must have the following:  a completed physical form, consent form, and acknowledgement of risk form.  Insurance is not necessary to purchase for the summer, but will be required for the fall.  In addition, I need a copy of their birth certificate in the fall.  Any magnet students that are not zoned for Greenville High also need to complete a transfer form that I must turn into the HS league office, but once again this is not necessary for summer conditioning.

 
If your child is a rising seventh or eighth grader that is not zoned for Greenville High there is nothing I can do.  He must participate with the high school to which he is zoned, even if he intends on transferring to Greenville High in the ninth grade.

 
This coming week our spring game is on Monday (May 21) at 7:00 at Sirrine Stadium.  Any C & D team members are encouraged to attend free of cost.  I will be out there around 6:30 to let them in the side gate.

 
Also this week on Wednesday are physicals here at Greenville High from 5:00-7:00.  I would suggest getting here early as there is often a high demand, since these physicals only run $10.  There are several forms that need to be completed first, and these are all on the website (go to the GHS website and click on athletics).  I would highly suggest taking advantage of this.

 

The first day of summer conditioning will be June 4, so please try to get physicals done ASAP.  Hopefully I will get a chance to finalize the summer schedule this weekend, so I can get that out to you early next week.  If you have any questions please feel free to e-mail me or give me a call.  Thanks.
