Chase Middle Student and Parent News – Nov. 2nd – 6th
Student assignment deadlines and updated information
Parents,
With the multiple families still impacted by the power outages we certainly understand this has created many issues in getting work completed and submitted.
The due date for student work for the week of Oct. 26th - 30th has been extended now to 11:59 on Sunday, November 8th at 11:59am. Students will have assignments this week. Teachers will communicate individual class information to their students. Our second six weeks grading period will end on Friday, November 6th. Please ensure your child is caught up and submitted all assignments by this date.
Thank you
Chase Middle Sports Season and Free Physicals - Updates
Our middle school sports season begins this week. Our first 3 sports will be cross country for girls and boys; girls volleyball; and girls and boys golf. Sign-up, tryouts, and other information is on the student Canvas announcement page.
Golf: We have a County Middle School team with combined players from all three schools. Golf tryout will be held on Wednesday, November 4th at the Forest City Golf Course at 3:00 pm. Parents will need to provide transportation to and from the golf course for tryouts, practices, and matches. Anyone trying out must bring their own clubs. Please contact Terry Osteen at Forest City Golf Course 828-248-5222.

8th Grade will be November 4th from 3:30-5
7th Grade will be November 5th from 3:30-5

You must have a physical on file before you are able to try out!
Boys and Girls Cross Country:
Cross Country tryouts will be held on November 4th from 3:15-4:15pm. Report to the gym and follow directions where to go to begin. All participants must have a current physical on file to try out or qualify for the team. Physical forms are available in the front office.
All students participating in a sport this year must have a current physical (7th and 8th graders can use a physical if it was completed March 2019 or after). All 6th graders must get a physical to tryout or participate in sports this school year.
If you missed the free physical date for your child you may go to Forest City Walk-In Clinic behind the mall anytime this month of October to receive a free physical. You will need to come by the school to get the correct physical packet to take with you to the Walk-in Clinic. If you have any questions please call the school.
