Silex middle school athletes-if you are playing basketball or cheerleading you need to get a practice card from the office. You need a current physical on file, they are good for 2 years. If you are new to playing a sport you will also need to grab a random drug testing form and a code of conduct form from the office and fill it out as well.
Even if you are currently playing a sport you need a practice card turned in. Remember no practice card means no practice and 14 practices are needed to be eligible to play. All middle school practices start next week! If you are currently playing softball or running cross country those practices count toward your winter sport eligibility. All forms need to be turned into Coach Evans ASAP. If you have any questions call the school and ask for me or send me an email at eevans@silex.k12.mo.us
Activities for Friday, September 29, 2023: Apply Missouri Day for Seniors, wear your college shirt; HS Cross Country @Warrenton; Elementary ABC Assemblies and Homework Club.
