Dear Lurgio Families,
As the middle school basketball playoff season approaches, I am writing to remind all students and their families about a few important aspects of interscholastic sports.
Participants in Lurgio’s athletic and extracurricular programs are held to a high standard of conduct. Our school community expects our athletes and participants to consistently exemplify our core values of respect for others, self and school. Sportsmanship is a key value of our middle school sports teams. As members of the Tri-County League, we are expected to “conduct inter-school relationships in a spirit of good sportsmanship.” It is important for all members of the sport community including coaches, parents, players, and spectators to demonstrate and encourage respectful, positive conduct.
Additionally, Lurgio Middle School athletic contests are public events scheduled after normal school hours. Students who attend as spectators are expected to attend the game and cannot be guaranteed supervision outside of the gymnasium area. Please take this into consideration as you schedule after school arrangements for your student.
Thank you for your support.
Best,
Kristen Gauthier, Assistant Principal & Athletic Director
