ATHLETICS
FALL SPORTS SIGN UP FOR 5th – 8th GRADE
Fall Sports such as Volleyball and Soccer will start up soon after school begins. If you missed orientation night, please come to the school office to pay your fees and to make sure that your information (phone number, e-mail address, etc.) is still correct. Soccer fees are $40.00 and Volleyball fees are $60.00 per season. Remember to turn in your sports physicals at that time also.
We have home volleyball games on Saturday, Sept. 6th, beginning at 10:00 a.m. with the last game starting at 4:00 p.m. Two games will be Tuesday, Sept. 16th beginning at 6:00 p.m. and one game is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 7th beginning at 5:00. If you are interested in working in the concession stand for the home volleyball games, this would be a great opportunity to get your FAITH hours in early. You don’t have to have a child who is in athletics to enjoy coming and cheering on the RAMS sporting events and helping out St. John Athletics.
