We are beginning our Basketball Unit in PE classes. Students will be learning the basic skills of basketball such as dribbling, passing, receiving, shooting, pivot, and ball fakes as well as basic concepts of gameplay, including offense, defense, inbound pass, and basic violations. Basketball will take us through the second week of November. After the Basketball Unit, we will begin our Hockey Unit which our students are always excited about!
The Turkey Trot is coming up on November 23. Please make sure that your student dresses appropriately for the weather. We want this to be a safe and fun event for all students!
We have begun our Basketball Intramurals! Standings for basketball are posted outside of both Mr. Cuviello and Mrs. Reed’s offices, as well as our website.
We have around 180 4th and 5th grade students participating Intramural Basketball Program. Please make sure that your child only comes on their days they are scheduled. Basketball Intramurals are grouped differently. 4th and 5th grade girls are grouped together along with 4th and 5th grade boys. Students may have intramurals on their Band days. If that is the case, they are to go to their intramural game at the time scheduled then and to their band class opposite their game. The PE department and Music department work closely together to make sure all students CAN PARTICIAPE in both!!! Parent drop off is at the end of A-wing at the front of the school at 7:40am, do not arrive prior to 7:35am. The intramural session will culminate with our annual 5th grade boys and girls All Star games played by 20 selected boys and girls. Details to follow.
