Lettering Criteria

Math team members will receive a varsity letter if they meet one of the following criteria:

1. Register and compete in at least 6 meets* (invitational, subsection, section, state)
2. Have an exemplary coaching record, which entails scheduling and fulfilling two coaching sessions beginning a week before the student’s first scheduled competition.  One of the two coaching sessions may include the Thursday evening team meeting and practice.
3. Assist at least two (2) hours in setting up for (or cleaning up after) one or more of the following events: Hilke Invitational, Parents’ Night, or the Speech/Debate Banquet.

* If a team member qualifies for the State tournament and meets criteria 2-4, he or she will letter even if she/he competed in fewer than 6 meets (an unlikely event!)

Note:  Except in case of emergency, a team member who fails to attend a competition for which he/she has registered will not letter.  Should the team member miss a second scheduled competition, he/she WILL be dropped from the team.

 

Photo Submissions

The yearbook staff needs your help! The staff can’t be everywhere, so we sometimes rely on students and parents to take great pictures. Think you have one? It could be your daily school routine at home, your study habits, you and your friends at school, or you and your friends at events.

Send them in to Ms. O'Brien at hobrien@sspps.org.

• Include in each caption: Contributed by [your name], the names of each subject (person) in the photo, and the event/occasion
• Submitted photos cannot be retouched after uploading
• The Yearbook Staff will review all photos and determine final yearbook content. We cannot guarantee that all submissions can be used in the book.

Thank you!
