There will be a parent meeting on the back field on April 1st immediately following practice.
Ellis students will have the chance to learn and participate in the following events: 75m hurdles, 100m dash, 200m, 400m, 800m, 1600m, shot put, discus, and long jump.
Athletes will need to make sure they come prepared with water, good running sneakers (no spikes), and warm clothes on meet days! An Ellis Eagle t-shirt will be provided for the meets, but must be returned at the end of the season.
Please check with the school nurse and make sure your child has a recent physical on file! If not, your child will not be able to participate until they do!
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Hannah Kimball (hkimball@sau83.org) or Kelli Booth (kbooth@sau83.org)

We are grateful for this important training.
