- Cheer for our team at appropriate times and are quiet at appropriate times, including when someone is injured and during free throws
- Use school-appropriate language
- Don’t say anything to the refs - good or bad
- No Cell phones Allowed - used with supervisor permission only.
Leadership
- Make Winston proud; the choices you make should support our teams, but it should do so positively.
Safety
- Follow directions given to you by staff supervisors.
- Walk up/down the bleachers and remain seated once you are there.
- If you need to leave the bleachers to go to the bathroom or to leave for the day, please do it during a break in play with permission from a supervisor. Please stay away from the area of play.
If you have any questions during the event, please ask a supervisor!
Moving D15 Forward
The District 15 Board of Education unanimously approved a resolution to place a bond referendum on the November 8, 2022 ballot. Doing so will allow the District to repair and restore our facilities, bring full-day kindergarten to all elementary schools, update schools libraries and some learning spaces, and ensure feeder patterns from elementary to junior high and high school providing all student access to a neighborhood or near neighborhood school. To learn even more about the proposed improvements visit www.ccsd15.net/Moving15Forward.
District 15 will be hosting informational meetings on the following dates:
October 6 - Thomas Jefferson Elementary School (Thomas Jefferson Middle School if the measure is approved)
