Ms. Duda is leading the Ski & Snowboard Club this year. Special thanks to Ms. Fitzgerald, Ms. Raso, Mr. Harrison, and Ms. Dalfior for helping get our club set up for success in 2020.
Ski and Snowboard Club is an after school club that runs ski/snowboard trips out to Wachusett Mountain on four evenings after school; 1/30 (Thursday), 2/5 (Wednesday), 2/12 (Wednesday), and 2/26 (Wednesday). Sign up is open to all 6th, 7th, and 8th graders and is on a first come - first served basis. Due to bus capacity, we can only take 50 students per trip. You may sign up for 1, 2, 3, or 4 trips, as long as there is space. You can cancel your registration without penalty up until the Friday before your scheduled trip. **Registration is not guaranteed until payment has been received - completing a registration form does NOT guarantee registration. Please make check payable to BIGELOW MIDDLE SCHOOL**
Helmets are MANDATORY
Students must complete ImPACT Testing prior to their first trip. ImPACT Testing is a baseline cognitive assessment that can help in the diagnosis or care of someone who has suffered a head injury. It is a computer-based test that takes about 30 minutes and must be done every three years to be useful. If your student has not completed ImPACT testing this school year, please have her/him see me to set up a time to be tested during school if necessary. Students may also complete the test at home on a personal computer using the directions below.
