As the activity approaches, more information will be announced at school via daily announcements.  If you have any questions, please contact the sponsor.

 

Intramural Basketball - Mr. Bally

Students play before school twice a week from 7:30-7:50 beginning during second semester.

 

Intramural Golf - Mrs. Becker

Intramural golf is open to any student who is interested, regardless of previous experience. We usually have two groups playing per week from early April to mid-May. Usually Monday and Thursday are golfing days, but that may vary with students’ preferences. We play at Fondulac Golf Course in East Peoria and Hillcrest Golf Course in Washington. Cost per round at each of these locations is usually approximately $5 for students. We leave the junior high at 3:15 and are generally back by 5:30. If a student is interested and does not have clubs, we will try to find a set for them, but it is preferable that each student has his or her own set of clubs and other equipment. This is not a “teaching” activity, but pointers on form and technique, as well as golf etiquette and rules are given to help students participate in this lifetime sport.

Intramural Soccer - Mr. Bally

After school, students typically play twice a week from approximately October to November.
 
Math Counts - Mr. Bally

This is a math competition held at Bradley University in the spring.  Practices begin during early second semester.

 

Scholastic Bowl – Mr. Swearingen

           

School Play - Mrs. Becker and Mrs. Peckmann

The school play holds auditions usually the third week of January and rehearsals start immediately after casting.  Most students will have rehearsal 4 to 5 nights a week after school from 3 to 4:30-5:00.  A weekly rehearsal schedule is given in advance.  Close to performance, occasional Saturday or evening rehearsal time may be necessary.  There is no cost, but students may be expected to provide some of their costume depending on the show and the costume requirements.  Performance for this year is March 14-15.
           (We can usually work around some occasional conflicts, but not a regular after school commitment--- that would include sports activities that will go on beyond about the first week of rehearsal. If the season is almost over, we can be flexible but not for any extended period of time. As a general rule, students will have to choose between an on-going sport and the play.)
