As for now, some important upcoming dates...Softball Tryouts will be Tuesday and Wednesday July 28-29, 9-10:30am at West Side Park across the street from Morris Grade School. Baseball tryouts will be held on Monday-Tuesday August 3-4, 9-10:30am at Roth Field. The first Cross Country practice will be held on Monday August 10th, 9-10:30am. A starting date for soccer has not been settled on at this point, however I will post that information when it becomes available.

In order to ensure everyone’s safety at this time I will be hosting a parent meeting online via "Google Meets" on Monday July 27th from 6-7pm. If you have a google account use the following code: qdk-eadw-uhs. If you do not have a google account enter the following weblink to enter the meeting: meet.google.com/qdk-eadw-uhs. I highly encourage all of our families with athletes to join in this meeting, especially those with incoming 6th graders, as we will be going over the Return to Play guidelines, registration processes, verification forms as well as other important information.

Update on Fall Athletics...Dear District 54 and Morris Families, Due to the current situation with COVID 19, the IESA is currently in a holding pattern with Fall Athletics. They will be releasing information regarding Athletics this Friday July 24th. Hopefully at that time we will have the protocols and processes needed to commence our fall athletics as safely as possible. Until that time we will proceed with our athletic sign ups as usual on our athletic website (https://il.8to18.com/ShabbonaMS/). Just click on "Registration" on the grey bar and follow the prompts.
A few reminders…Remember that all athletes must be registered on our athletic website (https://il.8to18.com/ShabbonaMS/) with all forms read and verified and have an up-to-date physical on file with our nurses at District 54, PRIOR to participation in either practices or tryouts.
