4/19/26: We get into a common practice schedule this week. All track athletes, girls and boys, will have practice after school unless otherwise noted going forward.
Last week went well considering how waterlogged we were. We appreciate the patience as we wait for long jump and shot put and discus to dry out. We need the focus last week to continue as we bring the whole team together for practice. We have a really big team this year, so following our protocols and routines are essential to have safe, productive practices.

Attention 6th, 7th and 8th graders! Do you like to run, jump or throw heavy things? If so, we have just the opportunity for you! Track and Field will begin practicing the week of April 13th. Track and field consists of sprints, relays, long distance running, hurdles, long jump, shot put, discus, and high jump. There’s something for everyone!
1/21/26: Please read below regarding the Red Smith Winter Running Club:
*We start Tuesday, January 27th and will meet most Tuesdays and Thursdays until spring break.
*Running club is from 3:00-3:45.
*Please pick up your child in the back parking lot outside Door 11 (just like cross country).
*Students meet in the Red Smith Cafe after school. That will be our home base most days.
*We will run the halls of Red Smith and have a couple specific routes so students can keep track of laps/miles.
*There are no competitions. We do this as a way to offer a safe/positive environment for students to increase their fitness. Plus it's fun to run in the halls ;)
*This is much more informal than cross country and even if you can't make it all the time because of other commitments, students are more than welcome to come only on days they can.
*Click here or to the page on the left of this site to sign up. Please fill out the waiver and return it to Coach King or Coach Wood.

We start to wrap up the track season this week.

2) 6th grade athletes wrap up their season with Wednesday's third and final meet.
