Lead-Deadwood School District

Reminder - volleyball open gym will begin on Tuesday, July 11th and be held each Tuesday and Thursday afternoon from 4:30-6:30 at the high school. If you are planning to play middle or high school volleyball this Fall, it is a good idea to attend this and get some work in for the off season. Mr. Nepodal

Our Fall Sports Meeting for parents and athletes will be held Monday, July 31st starting in the cafeteria with a small hot dog and chips feed for anyone attending...this will start at 6:00 with the meeting being held in gym 2 at 6:30. If your student plans to play a Fall sport, it is highly encourage that you attend this as several points of information regarding athletics will be handed out the Athletic Director and by the specific coach as well. Please plan to attend. Thank you. Mr. Nepodal

Just a reminder that if you are planning to play a Fall sport - football, volleyball, cross country, boys' golf, or cheerleading, you will need a physical before you can start to practice. This is for any student - girl or boy - who is in middle school or high school. Now would be a great time to take care of it even for the winter and spring sports. Thank you Mr. Nepodal
