Just a reminder that there will BE NO LATE BUS on Thursday the 18th due to the Parents Meeting in Cody for both parents and the middle school and high school players.
Hope everyone had a good first day of school. Wanted to give more specifics on practice days and times. Middle School Volleyball will practice Mondays and Wednesday’s from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm. Middle School Football will practice Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm. If they are going to have a third practice that week it will be communicated in advance. The third practice would be Monday or Wednesday from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm. Please don’t hesitate to call if you have any questions.
Housekeeping items:
There will be a waiting room for MS and HS students not practicing after school at the lunch tables. If a student is not involved in after school activities they need to be at the waiting tables.
All 6th-12th graders will need to bring $25 dollars for their computer fee. They will not be allowed to take their chromebooks home until they have paid the $25 dollars.
Concussion testing for the 7th grade and a handful of HS students will take place during 7th hour on the first day of school.
There will not be free lunches for everyone this year. We will return to pricing as it was before the pandemic. Every family will be sent home an admissions packet with your free and reduced lunch applications.
This year there are some get to know you forms for your students to fill out. We ask that you fill out all paperwork and have your students fill out the forms for them if they are able. (Mom and Dad may need to help a bit with the younger students.) PLEASE RETURN PAPERWORK BY AUGUST 22nd.
On August 19th there will be school on Friday for the 6-12 grade only - All day.
On August 26th there will be school on Friday for the 6-12th grade only - HALF DAY. Students will be dismissed at 12:30 pm.
The MS/HS is looking for an assistant cook. If you or someone you know is interested please contact the HS office.
Please make sure we have all physical forms brought to the office at the high school. If a student hasn’t turned in their form they may not play or practice until they do.
Mrs. Tolliver is heading up the secret pal program again this year. Please email her at stolliver@cody-kilgore.com to sign up for a secret pal!
This year we have practice after school for JH Volleyball and Football. This is different from previous years. In order to try to keep our late buses running efficiently we are implementing a different process for all students riding the late bus. Parents need to text (402-389-1515)or email (cford@cody-kilgore.com) Carrie to sign up their students for the next week by Friday @ 4:00 pm. If you don’t sign up your student by Friday before the next week, we cannot guarantee that there will be a place for them on the late bus.
We are still looking for a full time bus driver for the Merriman morning route. If you know someone who is interested in driving it on school days please direct them our way. (We are covering it with subs right now).
Finally - regarding the buses. In your packets being sent home you will find copies of the bus rules. Please go over these rules with your students. When we are returning your students home after school or practice and you plan to pick up your students, we will only wait for five minutes. At that time we will try to contact you. If you cannot be reached, the driver will let Mr. Orrock know, and if he cannot get ahold of anyone students may be returned to school and he may contact law enforcement. Again, good communication is the key.
Cody-Kilgore schools are looking for line judges and FB/VB refs. If interested contact Allie O’Neill at 605-515-1538
You get free admission along with a meal ticket!
We specifically need line judges for our first triangular on August 25th.
Games 1 and 3.
Thank you!
