Why does reading matter? It helps your mind work on focus and discipline while helping you become a stronger reader, writer, and thinker. Don’t know what to read? Visit Ms. Hodgens and her library staff. They love pairing readers with the right books.

DragonFlyMax
Sparkman would like to encourage all parents to create an account at DragonFlyMax and add each of their athletes under the account. This will allow us to manage all forms and paperwork digitally. The set-up process takes 5-10 minutes. Accounts can be created at the link below. Once an account is created, there is a DragonFlyMax app that will allow copies of the physicals to be uploaded to their child’s account by taking pictures of the front and back of the physical.
Summer workouts start the week of June 11
