Coach Sexton and Coach Candler are offering Intramural Sports each week in the gym starting at 7:45 a.m.   On Tuesdays and Thursday, students may participate in "Team Games".  Sign up sheets will be available in the gym to sign up for team spots. The first team game will be basketball and those sign-ups start Wednesday, Oct. 3rd in the gym.   Students may come during their Lift time to sign up and then go back to class.   We will rotate through a variety of units so students should listen to announcements to know what sport is being offered and when to sign up.

On Wednesdays and Fridays we will be doing weight lifting (Sexton) 8th GRADE ONLY and Zen Den/Yoga (Candler) open to anyone.  These sign-ups will start on Wednesday, Oct. 3rd in the gym.   Students are welcome to come during their Lift time to sign up and then go back to class.   Space is limited for these two intramural activities so sign-ups are first come-first served.   Zen Den sign ups will be weekly and ever changing.
