SRSS Handbook 2012_13.pdf - Steinbach Regional Secondary ...

• According to current health and safety
practices all students must change into
suitable athletic clothing and nonmarking
running shoes in order to
participate in Phys. Ed class,
intramurals, or personal fitness
workouts. Part of preparation and
readiness includes removal of all
jewellery (including all visible piercings)
Medical alert tags are exempt from this
rule.
• Failure to do so will result in a restriction
of activity and a penalty for class
participation. The accumulation of
penalties (or demerits) can result in a
loss of credit.
• Lockers are free for students to use –
however locks for the gym lockers must
be supplied by the students and
registered with the Phys. Ed
department.
• The Phys. Ed department reserves the
right to charge participation fees to
students for any class activities done
off-campus (eg. Bowling, golfing, etc).
INTERSCHOLASTIC SPORTS AT SRSS:
At the SRSS, we value student participation in
our school community. Therefore, all students
who attend the SRSS and who want to
participate in MHSAA competition will compete
for the SRSS in accordance with the provisions
set out in the MHSAA guidelines.
An SRSS student can feel proud and honoured
to represent his/her school in athletic
competition. It only takes a second when one
walks into the SRSS gym to see the accolades
SRSS students have brought to the school for
over 30 years. All students at the SRSS are
encouraged to try-out for a chance to represent
the school.
The SRSS competes at the AAAA level, the
highest level of high school competition.
Our school also operates in two athletic zones
(conferences).
Zone 13 (Eastman) is the rural zone in which the
SRSS competes in sports such as Soccer,
Fastball, Badminton, Baseball, X-Country, Golf
and Curling.
Zone 2 (SCAC) is the urban zone in which the
SRSS competes in Volleyball, Basketball and
Track & Field.
