Are you a middle schooler interested in representing your grade playing soccer on Spirit Day Friday March 24th? If so, get a permission form from your Social Studies teacher and ask your parents to complete it and sign it. Forms will be collected by your Social Studies teacher until the end of the school day on Friday March 17th. However, due to having a limited amount of spots, the sooner you turn in your completed from, the higher chances you will have to make the team. E-mail Mrs. Kime if you have any questions.
