Character Culture

I was recently reminded of Coach John Woodens’ list of team rules, he had only three:

1.  Be on Time
2.  Don’t use profanity
3.  Don’t criticize your team mates

Co-Curricular

Remember, kids must get co-curricular credit to march at graduation. We want them to experience Poland Regional High School’s community outside the classroom. Please encourage them to get involved. Here are a few that might interest them.

Math Team-Ms. Elias-Castillo and Mr. Franklin have been busy with the math team. The mostly Junior group have a competitive attitude that has added equated to increased scoring at math meets. Keep up the good work!

Knight Writer-Mr. Chutchian is always looking for articles for the school newspaper. Any students interested in writing a piece, should contact Mr. Chutchian. The Knight Writer staff will be taking a field trip early second semester to the Sun Journal. Articles are published on the www.rsu16.org web site.

Yearbook-Yearbooks are on sale. Better to order early as prices go up as the year progresses.

Fishing Club-If your child enjoys fishing, maybe they would like to participate with the Fishing Club. Mr. Tidd and Mr. Latham take a fall and spring fishing trip. They also tie flies in the winter. Who knew you could get co-curricular credit for fishing?

Speech and Debate-Mr. Robinson is always looking to add a few good debaters.

Thank you all for getting your student athletes registered on FamilyID.com. It seems to be working much better than the systems used the last two years. Some of the advantages include being able check your child’s physical date on your registration, and a simple ‘click’ to add your child to an additional sport. Please do not create a new registration for your child once you have already done so.
