The Middle School Track and Field program is designed to introduce students to the sport, with events suited for athletes of all skill levels and backgrounds. Track meets will feature 8 running events and 4 field events. Practices begin on Monday, April 6. Each team will participate in five scheduled track meets, including one at home and up to four against Big Suburban Conference opponents. If a meet is canceled due to weather or other reasons, efforts will be made to reschedule it, but limited facility availability and event staffing may make rescheduling difficult, and canceled meets are unlikely to be made up. Students can expect to have either practice or a meet every school day unless a practice is canceled due to weather.
