Practice Expectations
With the exception of student athletes who are only competing in shot put, all athletes are expected to attend practice daily.

Absences & Conflicts
Although we expect athletes to attend practice daily, we understand there may be conflicts with other activities. If your student athlete will miss all or part of practice, please complete the Google Form HERE or go to LPS.org and type MK3M into the keyword search bar in the top right hand corner. This will communicate the absence directly to the coaches. This form should also be used for last minute absences due to illness or any other circumstance. If you have previously communicated an absence to me via email, there is no need to complete this form.

Please make arrangements for prompt pickup.

After practice, all athletes must exit from door #9 (6th grade door, south gym door, SW exit of building).

Cancellations

Cancellations for Middle School Activities will be made prior to 7 am the morning of the event or 3 pm if during a school day.

Expectations & Policies for Participants

Philosophy

The goal of activities is to provide a supportive environment for students to enhance academic pursuits and to achieve goals pertaining to increased success, social development, physical development, cooperation, positive self-concept and personal worth and integrity. Further, activities should enable students to explore interest areas, develop new interests, and apply new knowledge through participation in individual and group activities. The intent of activities is for students to gain a sense of pride in accomplishments, to maintain the proper perspective of losing and winning, and to do one's best at whatever that level may be.
