Experiential trips, activities during fall break, student information, HS clubs and activities, photos of games

Experiential Education Trips
Within the next month and a half all students from grade 5-12 will have an experiential education trip.
  • Grade 5 go on their classroom without walls trips from Sept 18-21 or 25-28.
  • High School students go on Discover India trips are between Sept 21-28.
  • Middle School Week Without Walls trips happen Oct 29-Nov 2.
Jump Off
With the time off for students during fall break we realize that many families would benefit from having activities.  So we're going to offer Jump Off during the student's time off.  Three types of activities are available.  Jump Off Camp provides activities for students between 8 AM and 2 PM on the Monday-Friday of the break.  Jump Off Coaching is much like our current ASA program where students choose from our options.  Finally, Jump Off Open Times are times where facilities may be used by families or HS students.  For information about all of the Jump Off programs go here.

Student Information
Early in the year when speaking to new parents about how to find out about activities I mentioned that HS and MS students have a daily bulletin that is the source of much information about clubs, sports, and service opportunities.  The address for these bulletins are below.
Here is a glance of the high school activities that are coming up for the next week.  We should have similar information out for the middle school students in a week or so.


Photos
There are photos of recent ASIAC Boys and Girls soccer matches.

ASA registrations and payments, HS clubs kickoff, Big Bad Blue, Community Soccer Tournament

Bills for Season 1 for the Arts, Sports, and Activities (ASAs) have been emailed to parents.  If you did not receive on or there is an error, please just email Sripriya or Ryan or stop into the Athletics & Activities office.

On Tuesday the 4th of September, the HS students will participate in the Activities Mela -- where clubs and activities are represented by students to spread awareness about their group and encourage joining.  Spend time thinking about how to be involved in activities in the HS.  Next week I'll share links to the planning documents that are given to students.

September 8 and 9 is the annual Big Bad Blue swim meet.  If you are able to volunteer to help, please fill in this form.  No experience is necessary!


The Danish parents are hosting a community soccer tournament on September 23rd.  Open to anyone from middle school and older.  For more information click here.
