This is a reminder that Final Forms is now able to be completed for the 24/25 school year. All guardians need to complete and sign all forms. Students in 7th and 8th grade also need to register for any sports that they plan in participating in and sign the forms. For those playing fall sports, remember that a current sports physical needs to be completed and turned into the school prior to participation in those activities, including practices. All forms need to be completed in order to receive your school schedule at the Middle School Orientation on August 15th.
The MS office will be closed until August 4th. If you have any questions, feel free to email me at jberry@ztlsd.org.
