Track & Field: We kick off our track and field season in Phys Ed classes in mid-April. Students learn all of the events during class and then they choose their two best events to compete in at our school wide track meet at the beginning of May. The top 2 boys and 2 girls in each category and in each event earn the opportunity to be a member of the Track and Field team. These students will compete at the Zone Track Meet at the end of May. The top students from Zones will have the opportunity to compete at the City Finals at the beginning of June.
