Yes, you might miss strength training but you can still get a track workout. 4) Group projects, and studying. Being a student comes first, but learning how to manage time is a vital skill. If you have to study or work on a project we can give you a shortened workout. Please don't argue about level of consequence or if a situation is critical or not. The consequences aren't a big...deal just do them and let's keep it cool.

Communication Athletes can text line leaders, send email to erhstrack@yahoo.com, or message through remind app! If you tell us during the day in person please use one of the options above to leave a paper trail. Coaches can not remember everything.... Injuries Student-Athletes must know the difference between small nagging injuries and truly being injured. Both cases require you to be at practice dressed unless, but your activity might be limited or non exsistent. Minor injuries may include: shin splints, minor sprains, minor muscle strains, and minor forms of tendonitis. Severe injuries may include: torn muscles, broken bones, ligament/tendon strains/tear, and so fourth. We, as coaches, will try to do our best to help prehab and rehab injuries. Meets Athletes must ride on bus to and from meets unless proper paper work is completed Early Dismissal paperwork must be completed at lease one day prior to meet Athletes must treat all opposing athletes/coaches/helpers with respect Athletes must stay until the end of the meet unless approved by a coach ATHLETES MUST TALK TO TEACHERS ABOUT MISSED CLASSES DUE TO MEETS BEFORE HANDGrading The only ways a Student-Athlete will not receieve an "A" in the class is if practice is consistently being missed or consistently not dressing.

You can help by providing snacks at meets Driving kids to or from meets and Saturday practices CHEERING If you have a background that can be of service please let us know!
