Brooklynn is a great teammate and an exceptionally hard worker! Ben is a 7th grader on the Boys Track team. He had an amazing track debut at the team’s first meet last week, competing in the 400m, 800m, and 4x800m relay.

Looking for Youth Sports Info? Start Here! With the start of the spring sports season, we’re getting a lot of questions about youth sports teams—and we’re excited to see so many families getting involved! If you’re looking for details about your child’s team, registration status, or schedule, the best way to get accurate information is by contacting the appropriate youth sports organization directly. Please don’t call the school—our staff is unable to answer specific questions about youth sports programs. These teams are run by local organizations, not the school district.
