PRACTICES
Early Practice: A supervised study hall is provided by MCS staff, or in a teacher-supervised homework hall. The school day ends at 2:36. Students are expected to go home at dismissal, return to practice (3:00), or report to the supervised study hall.
Late Practice: (generally 4:45 in Minerva and 4:40 in Johnsburg) All students MUST go home and return at the designated time.
Games: The same guidelines apply to students awaiting the start of home games or transportation to away games.
Behavior: If behavior problems are reported, parents will be called to pick up their child, and students forfeit the opportunity to participate in athletics that day. Persistent after-school behavior problems will result in suspension from the team
Athletic practices are held in Minerva, North Warren, and Johnsburg on a rotating schedule. This schedule is developed weekly by the athletic directors, posted in both school locations, and handed out to coaches weekly.
