Let's get Mooving! 

We offer Fall, Winter, and Spring Sports for our 5th-8th graders. Please see below for each season, broken down by sport and estimated timing. Sign-ups for all Fall sports (Volleyball, Cross Country & Flag Football) are linked below. We will send Basketball & Soccer sign-ups as we get closer to their time of year. Parents are responsible for transportation to and from games. Practices will be held on campus after school on designated days. It may vary depending on the season.

Mrs. Olson's Weekly Moooovement Update: 
 
This week in PE: 
The hot weather has made for a rough start to the school year, so we are about to get into PE activities as the cooler weather arrives. So far, students have been practicing teamwork, communication, and safe participation during PE, and learning the rules for being outside during lunch and recess. We are focusing on encouraging others, following directions, and giving our best effort - even when an activity may feel challenging.
 
Sycamore Athletics: 
Girls Volleyball, Flag Football, and Cross Country are off to a challenging start, with only 2 practices before their first games because of the hot weather. The season is off to a strong start, and the teams are trying their best!
 
Weekly Moovement Challenge: 
Choose one activity: 
- Walking, biking, dancing, playing outside, or practicing a sport 
- Stay active for at least 20 minutes and invite a family member to join you!
