Dear Parents,
As we begin the 2014-2015 school year, I would like to share with you my reflections on “all
things Central.” I believe that our strength lies in our school community. Both staff and
parents are passionate about guiding our students through these middle years, preparing them
for the challenges they will face in high school and beyond. There are always “bumps” along
the way, and I appreciate the open and honest conversations we have, as, together, we solve
problems before they become issues. Our staff continues to learn and grow, incorporating both
State and District initiatives as we strive to add rigor to our classes. Our ultimate goal is to
provide opportunities for students to apply new learning and to develop critical thinking and
problem solving skills. The Common Core State Standards helped us focus our strategies and
target our long-term goals, and ultimately will improve the quality of instruction in our
classrooms. This has been a year of many changes in education, and I feel that our school
community has risen to the challenge.
This school year will bring further change as we begin the rollout of the District’s digital
learning initiative. The nature of teaching and learning will be impacted as devices become an
essential tool for both teachers and students. I am excited that our school community is a part
of this initiative.
I would like to take a moment to thank the CMS PTA for their continued support. I hope that
you all attend the membership meeting this fall so that you can be involved in the many
programs they facilitate. I would also like to welcome our new families- you couldn’t be in a
better place! Thank you all for entrusting us with your children. I am looking forward to a fun
and productive school year.
Sincerely,
Shelley Somers

IMPORTANT NOTICE
August, 2014
Dear Parents and Guardians,
The Greenwich Public Schools has updated the district’s attendance procedure to reflect changes
mandated by the Connecticut State Board of Education Attendance Guidelines defining excused
and unexcused absences.
The State of Connecticut definition of truancy remains: four (4) unexcused absences in one
month or ten (10) unexcused absences in one year. The definition of excused and unexcused
absences has changed. Absences one through nine are considered excused when the student’s
parent/guardian contacts school personnel and approves of the absence. However, the tenth and
all other absences thereafter will only be excused for specific reasons and only when
appropriate documentation is provided to school. Below is a brief summary of the new
requirements for reporting absences.
First 9 days of absence
On the day of the absence, call your child’s school to
report the absence and the reason for the absence.
Absence day 10 and beyond On the day of the absence, call your child’s school to
report the absence and the reason for the absence.
A written note must be sent to the school within 10 school
days of the student’s return to school. An absence will
only be designated as excused as follows:
• Student Illness – requires a note from a medical
professional or the school nurse
• Observance of a religious holiday
• Mandated court appearance
• Funeral or death in the family
• Other emergency beyond the control of the student’s
family
For other examples of excused absence designations, please refer
to the full Attendance Procedure at www.greenwichschools.org
School attendance is a vital aspect of successful learning. Parents/Guardians are compelled to
send their child to school and can incur legal liability if they fail to do so. School personnel will
continue to work cooperatively with parents to assist in remedying and preventing truancy.
For further information about the GPS attendance procedure please visit the home page of the
Greenwich Public School website at www.greenwichschools.org If you have any questions
regarding the new attendance procedures, please contact your child’s school.
Sincerely,
Ellen Flanagan, Ed. D.

AVISO IMPORTANTE
Agosto 2014
Queridos padres y tutores,
Las Escuelas Públicas de Greenwich han actualizado la normativa del distrito sobre la asistencia a la
escuela para reflejar los cambios obligatorios que se han producido en las Normativas de Asistencia de la
Junta Directiva de Educación de Connecticut al definir ausencias justificadas y ausencias sin
justificación.
La definición de absentismo escolar sigue siendo la misma, es decir, cuatro ausencias sin justificar en un
mes o diez ausencias sin justificar en un año. La definición de ausencias justificadas y ausencias sin
justificación ha cambiado. Las primeras nueve ausencias se consideran justificadas cuando el padre,
madre o tutor del alumno contacta al personal de la escuela y este aprueba la justificación. No obstante, la
décima y las consiguientes ausencias solamente serán justificadas por razones específicas y sólo
cuando se facilita a la escuela la documentación apropiada. A continuación se muestra un breve
resumen de los nuevos requisitos para informar de las ausencias:
Los primeros nueve días de
ausencia
La décima ausencia y las
subsiguientes
El día de la ausencia hay que llamar a la escuela de su hijo para
informar de la ausencia y la razón de la ausencia.
El día de la ausencia hay que llamar a la escuela de su hijo para
informar de la ausencia y la razón de la ausencia. También se
tendrá que mandar una nota a la escuela en un plazo de 10 días
escolares una vez que el estudiante vuelve a la escuela. La
ausencia sólo se designará justificable si cumple los siguiente
requisitos:
• Enfermedad del estudiante, en este caso se requiere una
nota del doctor o de la enfermera escolar.
• Cumplimiento de una fiesta religiosa
• Comparecencia obligatoria en el tribunal
• Funeral o fallecimiento en la familia
• Otras emergencias fuera del control de la familia del
estudiante.
Para ver otros ejemplos de ausencias justificadas, rogamos
consulten la Normativa sobre Asistencia en su totalidad
visitando www.greenwichschools.org
La asistencia a la escuela es un aspecto vital para el éxito del aprendizaje. Los padres y tutores están
obligados a mandar a sus hijos a la escuela y podrán incurrir en responsabilidades legales si no lo hacen.
El personal escolar continuará colaborando con los padres para ayudarles a remediar y prevenir el
absentismo escolar.
Para obtener más información sobre la normativa de GPS sobre la asistencia a la escuela, visiten la página
Web de la Escuelas Públicas de Greenwich en www.greenwichschools.org Si tienen cualquier pregunta
relacionada con las nuevas normativas de asistencia, rogamos se pongan en contacto con la escuela de
su hijo.
Atentamente,
Ellen Flanagan, Ed. D.

COURTESY BUS LETTER
August 2014
Dear Parents:
We hope that you’re having a good summer. I am writing to advise you of the procedures that must be
followed in order to purchase a bus pass for your child for the 2014-2015 school year. Students who live
within established walking distances are not eligible to ride the bus. However, these students, on a space
available basis, upon payment of a fee, and with the provision that there be no change in bus routes or
stops may receive transportation to and from Central Middle School.
Due to individual bus enrollment, we may not be able to accommodate every family interested in
obtaining a courtesy bus pass.
Students not eligible to ride the bus may be able to purchase a bus pass on a first come, first serve basis
beginning on September 13th at 7:00 a.m. in the Main Office at Central Middle School. The number of
courtesy passes available will be based on the actual ridership of each bus on each route. The following
condition must be met in order to be eligible for this service.
Please check the bus route for 2014-2015 school year as some have changed.
There must be sufficient seats on that bus route.
The form on the reverse side of this letter must be completed and returned with a check for
$230.00 made payable to the Town of Greenwich.
A parent must present the application and the check to our Main Office; we will not accept
applications sent through the mail or from your child.
There are no late buses on Wednesdays; therefore, if a bus is full, paid bus pass holders may
not be accommodated on Wednesdays.
Bus privileges may be revoked and a pro-rated portion of the fee refunded if additional
students who are eligible for free transportation move into the District.
The fee for a courtesy bus pass will be waived for families eligible for the Free and Reduced
Lunch program.
We hope this information is helpful to you in planning to meet your child’s transportation needs for the
upcoming school year. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the content of this letter, please
do not hesitate to contact me. Additional information is also available in the school system’s
Transportation Procedure (E-051.4) which can be found on the website www.greenwichschools.org. A
new on-line system for reporting school bus issues is also available on the website.
Sincerely,

Dear Greenwich Parent:
For several years we have had a comprehensive K-12 health curriculum that includes instruction in, among
other areas, HIV/AIDS, puberty and family life education.
In accordance with Connecticut law and Greenwich Board of Education policy, parents have the right to
exempt their children from these specific portions of the health program taught in the following grades:
HIV/AIDS
Puberty
Family Life Education
Grades: 2, 5, 8 & 10
Grades: 5, 6 & 8
Grades: 8, 9 & 12
In the interest of fully informing each parent, individual schools will present opportunities for a full review of all
sensitive curricula and teaching materials early in the year prior to their actual implementation. You will also
receive forms to use should you choose to exercise your right to exempt your children from any of the above
areas.
I believe that the entire health curriculum is of high quality and an important part of your child’s comprehensive
education. I encourage you to view critically the curriculum and hopefully you will come to the same
conclusion. I respect your right to exempt your child from certain portions of the curriculum if you so wish and
know that you will give this matter serious, thorough consideration
Sincerely,
William S. McKersie, Ph.D.

Central Middle School’s staff and students have the great opportunity to take advantage of outside
teaching space using the paths and various cleared areas set within the beautiful acreage of the

Use of Information Statement: This explains how we will use the information you give us.
The Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act requires the information on this application. You do not have to give the information, but if you do not, we cannot approve your child for free or reduced price meals. You
must include the last four digits of the social security number of the adult household member who signs the application. The last four digits of the social security number is not required when you apply on behalf of a foster
child or you list a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) Program or Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (FDPIR) case number or other FDPIR
identifier for your child or when you indicate that the adult household member signing the application does not have a social security number. We will use your information to determine if your child is eligible for free or
reduced price meals, and for administration and enforcement of the lunch and breakfast programs. We MAY share your eligibility information with education, health, and nutrition programs to help them evaluate, fund, or
determine benefits for their programs, auditors for program reviews, and law enforcement officials to help them look into violations of program rules.
Non-discrimination Statement: Refer to the application instructions for the non-discrimination statement.

APPLICATION FORM INSTRUCTIONS
To apply for free and reduced price meals or free milk, complete this application using the instructions below, sign your name and return
the application to the school. If you need help, contact your school’s office.
Part 1-STUDENT INFORMATION: List each child’s name, grade and school. If a child is a foster child, circle “yes” and list personal use
income and frequency. If all children are foster children, skip to Part 6. Note: Write each child’s *personal use income and how often it is
received (such as weekly, every two weeks, twice a month, or monthly). Write “0” if the child has no personal use income. An Adult
household member must sign Part 7. Note: Subsidized adoptions and/or guardianships require you to provide all household income in
Part 5. These children are not considered legal wards of the state and therefore, are considered part of your household and all household
income must be listed including the subsidy.
*Personal use income includes: Funds provided by the welfare agency that are specifically identified by category for the personal use of the
child, such as for clothing, school fees and allowances. Welfare funds paid to the foster parents identified by category for shelter and care,
and those identified as special needs funds, such as those for medical and therapeutic needs are not considered as income. Where welfare
funds cannot be identified by category, no portion of the provided funds is considered as income. Personal use income also includes other
funds received by the child, including any income the child earns for full-time or regular part-time employment, and money provided by the
child’s family for personal use.
Part 2 – If a member of your household receives Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) or Temporary Family Assistance (TFA)
benefits, list the person’s name and case number. Do not complete Part 5 and skip to Part 6. When a name and case number for a household
member are listed on the application all children in the household are eligible for free meals. (Note: If you are receiving only medical
benefits (HUSKY) for your children do not complete this section. You must report all household income in Part 5.)
Part 3 – Indicate if the child you are applying for is homeless or a runaway. You must contact the school (or homeless liaison) to notify them
of the child’s status.
Part 4 – Indicate if the child you are applying for is enrolled in the district’s Head Start or Even Start Program. List the child’s name here and
in Part 1 and check off the appropriate box.
Part 5- HOUSEHOLDS: Complete Part 5 if: You did not give a SNAP/TFA Client ID Number; you are receiving only medical benefits;
each child is not a legal ward of the state; or if each child is a subsidized adoption or you have subsidized guardianship. Note: An
adult household member must sign the application in Part 7 and complete the social security section.
a.
b.
c.
HOUSEHOLD NAMES: Write the names of everyone (related or unrelated) who live in your household. Include yourself and each child
listed above, your spouse, all other children, grandparents, other relatives and unrelated people in your household. Use a separate sheet of
paper if you do not have enough space. Include foster children if you want them to be part of the household when determining the
eligibility of your children.
NO INCOME: Check the box if the person listed has no income. (Note: “Person” includes adults and children in the household.)
CURRENT INCOME*: Write the amount of income each person now receives on the same row as his or her name in the column that
corresponds with the income source. Also, list that income under the appropriate frequency box. For example, if you earn $250 per
month, place the $250 in the monthly column. Income is all money before taxes or anything else is taken out. If the amount received
most recently is higher or lower than usual, write instead that person’s usual income. Note: If you are in the Military Housing
Privatization Initiative, do not include this housing allowance.

Part 6- RACIAL/ETHNIC IDENTITY: Put a check mark next to the racial/ethnic group of your child. This information helps us to be sure
everyone gets benefits on a fair basis. You do not have to complete this section to get free or reduced meals or free milk.
Part 7 – SIGNATURE & SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER: An adult household member must sign the application or it cannot be approved.
The last four digits only of the social security number of the adult signer must be included unless otherwise noted. While disclosure of the last
four digits of a social security number is voluntary, in order to approve the application, the National School Lunch Act requires the last four digits of
a social security number or an indication of “I don’t have a social security number” be listed on the application. Reminder: The last four digits of a
social security number are not needed if you have listed a SNAP Client Number, TFA Client Number or if the children are foster children.
Non-Discrimination Statement: This explains what to do if you believe you have been treated unfairly. The U.S. Department of Agriculture prohibits discrimination against its customers, employees, and applicants for
employment on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, disability, sex, gender identity, religion, reprisal, and where applicable, political beliefs, marital status, familial or parental status, sexual orientation, or all or part of
an individual’s income is derived from any public assistance program, or protected genetic information in employment or in any program or activity conducted or funded by the Department. (Not all prohibited bases will apply
to all programs and/or employment activities.)
If you wish to file a Civil Rights program complaint of discrimination, complete the USDA Program Discrimination Complaint Form, found online at http://www.ascr.usda.gov/complaint_filing_cust.html, or at any USDA office, or
call (866) 632-9992 to request the form. You may also write a letter containing all of the information requested in the form. Send your completed complaint form or letter to us by mail at U.S. Department of Agriculture,

hijo reúne los requisitos para recibir comidas gratuitas o a precios reducidos, así como para administrar y hacer cumplir los programas de almuerzos y desayunos.
PODEMOS compartir su información de elegibilidad con ciertos programas de educación, salud y nutrición para ayudarlos a evaluar, financiar o determinar los

2014-15 GREENWICH PUBLIC SCHOOLS PARENT/GUARDIAN LETTER TO HOUSEHOLDS FOR
SCHOOL MEALS AND SNACKS
Dear Parent/Guardian:
The Greenwich Public Schools offers a choice of healthy meals each school day. Children may buy lunch for $3.15 for elementary
schools, $3.30 for middle schools, $3.40 for high school and breakfast for $1.50-$2.00 at participating schools. Children who
qualifY under U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) guidelines may get meals free or at a reduced price of $.40 cents for lunch and
$.30 cents for breakfast. All meals served must meet nutrition standards established by the USDA . If a child has a disability, as
determined by a doctor, and the disability prevents the child from eating the regular school meal, the school will make substitutions
prescribed by the doctor. If a substitution is needed, there will be no extra charge for the meal. Please call your school for further
information.
Note: Children receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) or Temporary Family Assistance (TFA)
benefits may be directly certified and automatically eligible for free meals. Questions regarding SNAP/TFA and direct
certification should be sent to the determining official (John Hopkins, 203-625-7499) If you have received a NOTICE OF
DIRECT CERTIFICATION for free meals , do not complete the application. However, do let the schoo l know if any chi ldren in your
hou seho ld are not listed on the Notice of l)irect Certification letter you received.
An application for free meal benefits cannot be approved unless it contains all required i1~{ormatimz.

My child's application was approved last year. Do I need to fill out another one? Yes. Your child's
application is only good for that school year and for the first few days of this new school year. Note however, that
unless you have been notified that your children are directly certified or you submit an application that is approved, the
children must pay full price for school meals and the school will not send you a reminder notice of expired eligibility
when the carry-over period ends.
Do I need to fill out an application for each child that attends the same school district? No. Use one Free and
Reduced Price School Meals Application for all students in your household that attend that district. (Note: If you have
children that attend different school DISTRICTS, then one application will need to be completed for each district.) We
cannot approve an application that is not complete, so be sure to fill out all required information. Return the completed
application to your school's office.
Who can get free meals? All children in households receiving benefits from SNAP or TFA can get free meals
regardless of your income. (Note: Free eligibility based on SNAP or TFA is extended to all children in the household
when the application lists a SNAP or TFA case number for any household member.) In addition, your children can get
free meals if your household's gross income is within the free limits on the Federal Income Guidelines. Households
with children who are foster children, runaway or homeless, or are enrolled in the Head Start/Even Start Program should
check off the appropriate box on the application and contact the school for assistance in receiving benefits. Note:
Subsidized adoptions and subsidized guardianships are not automatically eligible for free meals. These require the
calculation of all household income plus the adoption/guardianship subsidy.
Can FOSTER children get free meals? Yes , foster children that are under the legal responsibility of a foster care
agency or court, are eligible for free meals. There are a few ways that a school can determine a foster child as being
eligible for free meals:
a. The determining official (the person who approves the free and reduced meal application) receives a copy from the
foster parent, of the legal document or legal court order showing that the child is a foster child;
b. The determining official receives a copy from the Board of Education or school's main office, of the Department of
Children and Family Services (DCF) 603 form indicating that the child is a foster child ; or
c. The foster parent completes a free and reduced meal application and checks off that the child is a foster child and lists
the child ' s personal use income if applicable. Note that a foster child is categorically eligible for free meals and may
be included as a member of the foster family if the foster family chooses to also apply for benefits. If the foster family
is not eligible for free or reduced price meal benefits, it does not prevent a foster child from receiving free meal
benefits; however, a foster child 's free eligibility does not automatically extend to all students in the household .
Can homeless and runaway children get free meals? Yes, children who meet the definition of homeless or
runaway qualify for free meals. If you have not been told your children will get free meals, please call or e-mail Denise
Qualey to see if they qualify at: (203) 622-6556 or [email protected]. to see if they qualify.
If a member of my household receives SNAP or TFA benefits may I submit an application? Yes. Households with
any member who is currently certified to receive SNAP or TF A benefits may submit an application for these children
with the abbreviated information as indicated on the application and instructions.
Can my child's free meal status be extended to all children in the household? It depends . Categorical eligibility for
free meals is extended to all children in a household when the application lists a SNAP or TFA case number for any
household member. If you think free benefits should be extended to all children in the household, contact the
determining official.
Who can get reduced price meals? Your children can get low cost meals ifyour household income is within the
reduced price limits on the Federal Income Eligibility Chart on the second page of this letter.
Should I fill out an application if I received a letter this school year saying m y children are approved for
free meals? Please read the letter you got carefully and follow the instructions. Call the Food Service Office at 203625-7499 ifyou have questions.

number of the adult household member signing the application is needed.
13. If I don't qualify now, may I apply later? Yes, you may apply at any time during the school year. For example,
children with a parent or guardian who becomes unemployed may become eligible for free or reduced price meals if the
household income drops below the income limit.
14. What if I disagree with the school's decision about my application? You should talk to school officials. You also
may ask for a hearing by calling or writing to: John Hopkins, Food Service Director, 203-625-7424, 290 Greenwich
Ave. Greenwich, CT 06830
15. May I apply if someone in my household is not a U.S. citizen? Yes. You or your child(ren) do not have to be U.S.
citizens to quality for free or reduced price meals.
16. Who should I include as members of my household? You must include all people living in your household,
related or not (such as grandparents, other relatives, or friends) who share income and expenses. You must include
yourself and all children living with you. If you live with other people who are economically independent (for example,
people who you do not support, who do not share income with you or your children, and who pay a pro-rated share of
expenses), do not include them.
17. What if my income is not always the same? List the amount that you normally receive. For example, if you normally
make $1000 each month, but you missed some work last month and only made $900, put down that you made $1 000 per
month. If you normally get overtime, include it, but do not include it if you only work overtime sometimes. If you have lost
a job or had your hours or wages reduced, use your current income.
18. We are in the military. Do we include our housing allowance as income? Ifyou get an off-base housing
allowance, it must be included as income. However, if your housing is part of the Military Housing Privatization
Initiative, do not include your housing allowance as income.
19. My spouse is deployed to a combat zone. Is her combat pay counted as income? No, if the combat pay is
received in addition to her basic pay because of her deployment and it wasn't received before she was deployed, combat
pay is not counted as income. Contact your school for more information.
20. My family needs more help. Are there other programs we might apply for? Your child and family may be
eligible for SNAP benefits if your child is determined to be eligible for free meals. For information regarding the SNAP
and to contact the Department of Social Services office in your town, contact United Way's free referral number 2-1-1
(free call, statewide).
21. Will information on my application be kept confidential? We will use the information on your application to decide
if your child should get free or reduced price meals. We may inform officials connected with Title I and the National
Assessment of Educational Progress whether your child is eligible for free or reduced price school meals. They will use
this information for funding and/or evaluation purposes. Information may also be disclosed if you want the application
to be used to get other benefits.

GREENWICH PUBLIC SCHOOLS
MIDDLE SCHOOL SPORTS
INTRAMURAL AND COMPETITIVE
PROGRAM
2014 FALL SCHEDULE
SETTING THE STANDARD FOR EXCELLENCE
MIDDLE SCHOOL SPORTS
Recreational and competitive sports activities provide an outlet for the natural energies of people of all ages. “Joy
through movement” is a common human experience.
The Greenwich Public Schools currently offer the most extensive Middle School Sports program in the
State of Connecticut.
Middle school age children in particular, both enjoy and learn from involvement in sports and recreational activities.
Not only can they improve physical fitness and sports skills that are fun, but they learn to lead, follow, share, and
cooperate in socially acceptable ways.
Rapid changes in physical growth and maturation, coupled with pressures exerted by the peer group, make sports
a healthy alternative to other forms of recreation. It is important for every adult associated with the middle school sports
program to support, through word and example, the concept that the exhilaration experienced through sports is more
real and lasting than any form of “high” achieved by other means.
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this handbook is to provide parents, students, team supervisors, and faculty members with
information about the Greenwich Middle School Sports Program. It is intended to help you to become familiar with our
philosophy, to explain individuals’ responsibilities, to outline the yearly calendar for Intramurals and the Competitive
program, and to provide sample copies of forms used in the Middle School Sports program.
PHILOSOPHY
It is our belief that participation in sport activities contributes to the development of the middle school-aged boy
and girl. A program which encourages and welcomes all students is basic to this philosophy. The program as described
herein is designed to meet the needs of competitive and intramural athletes.
DESCRIPTION
The middle school sports program provides opportunities for students to participate in both the competitive and
recreational arenas of sport.
INTRAMURALS
PHILOSOPHY: One of the main objectives of the Middle School Intramurals is to provide every student with the
opportunity to play and enjoy friendly activity under the supervision of certified staff. While the main focus is
recreational, participants may practice game skills learned in physical education class. Activities which are not offered in
regular physical education class are also available. These offerings may differ from school to school, and season to
season as interest and participation dictate.
Some of the activities which may be offered are:
Soccer
Flag football
Floor Hockey
Basketball
Diamond Sports
Adventure Climbing
Rollerblading
Volleyball
Fitness Center
Racquet Sports
Dance
SCHEDULE: Intramurals are typically offered four days a week.
Physicals and permission forms are not required for participation in the Intramural Program.
COMPETITIVE PROGRAM
PHILOSOPHY: The value of increased skills instruction, additional practice time, and interschool competition add to the
growth and development of the middle school student. The middle school competitive program provides students with
opportunities to nurture their competitive drive while maintaining a high standard of sportsmanship. Team practices and
competition provide a forum which fosters respect for diverse athletic capabilities.
When necessary and feasible, the competitive program offers A and B level teams to maximize student
participation. The sports which have been selected for this program complement the competitive opportunities
throughout the Greenwich community, while considering limitations imposed by facilities, field space, transportation, and
staffing. Athletes compete against teams in the Greenwich Middle Schools, private school teams, and selected regional
teams as opportunities arise. Games will be officiated by qualified officials.
Sports offerings include:

Soccer – boys “A”

Try-outs will determine eligibility to play on the competitive team. It is necessary for students to plan to attend all
days of try-outs (accommodations will be made for extenuating circumstances). Cuts that may be necessary will
be made at the discretion of the coaches. These will be held Monday through Friday from school dismissal time
until approximately 4:30 or 5:00 for the first week of the season. Basketball try-outs may pose an exception to
this time frame.
Students in all three grades may try out for the teams, male and female, for all sports as long as there is not a
sport/team of comparable nature in which to participate. (i.e., softball and baseball) In addition to skill
performance, eligibility will be determined by attendance and attitude. Students will be issued team uniforms
(which are the only authorized uniform) specific to each sport. Rubber cleats or sneakers are the only permissible
type of footwear.
Mouth guards are mandatory for field hockey players.
SCHEDULE:
o
Game times may vary.
o
Practice runs for 90 minutes per session. These sessions will take place at varying time blocks from school to

SPORT:____________________________________________________________
The Middle School Competitive Sports Program is an extension of the Middle School Intramural
Program. It requires a four-day per week commitment from the students and will take place after
school. Students will try out for these teams and will participate in competition against other
middle schools here in Greenwich and in Fairfield and Westchester Counties. If a sport does not
begin until 4:00 or so, students will be required to attend a school based program (homework
club, intramurals, other school sponsored activity/extra help from teachers or an assigned study
hall). Parents are responsible for student transportation home after all practices and
games.
By its nature, participation in competitive athletics includes risk of injury, which may range in
severity from minor disabling to even death. Although serious injuries are not common in
supervised school athletic programs, it is impossible to eliminate the risk. Participants have the
responsibility to help reduce the chance of injury. Players must obey all safety rules, report all
physical problems to their coaches, follow a proper conditioning program, and inspect their own
equipment daily. Additionally, they must have had a “sports physical” that is current both during
tryouts and throughout participation in the season. If your physical is due to expire before tryouts
or before the end of the sports season, a new physical must be submitted prior to tryouts and/or
participation. No exceptions can be made.
By signing this Permission Form, we acknowledge that we have read the above information.
Parents or students who do not wish to accept the commitments, risks and responsibilities
described in this correspondence should not sign this permission form.
I hereby give my consent for the above named student: 1: to represent his/her school in approved
athletic activities; 2. to accompany any school team of which he/she is a member on its local or
out-of-town trips; 3. to receive, through a medical doctor of the school’s choice, emergency
medical care which may become reasonably necessary in the course of such athletic activities or
travel.

Dear Parents:
The attached Physical Exam Form for Sports Participation is to be filled out by
your physician when you take your son/daughter for their physical exam. It is strongly
recommended that this form be filled out by your physician and you, so that at any time
during the school year your child will be eligible to try out for any of the Competitive
Sports programs, if they so choose. As per town policy, your son or daughter will not
be able to attend the tryouts or practice sessions if this form is not completed and
dated within 13 months of the try-out date.
Many children are unsure if they would like to try out for a team until a day or
two before it starts. This is the nature of middle school children. As we are sure you
are well aware, appointments with your physicians need to be made many weeks in
advance; thus the problem arises: How can I get an appointment with my doctor by
tomorrow? Please don’t let this hold back your child from being part of the Competitive
Program.
The fall Competitive Program starts in early September. The sports
offered will be Soccer, Field Hockey and Co-ed Volleyball.
The winter
Competitive Program will start in early December. The sports offered will be:
Girls and Boys Basketball. The spring Competitive Program starts in early
April. The sports offered will be: Boys Baseball and Girls Softball and Co-ed
Track.
The teams are open to students in all grades at the middle school.
Unfortunately, if we have a large number of interested participants, there is a possibility
that there will be cuts.
If you have any questions, please call:
Nancy James (Central Middle School)
Robin Schemansky (Eastern Middle School)
Phil Tarantino (Western Middle School)

SPORTS POLICY ADDENDUM
Effective immediately the following requirement is in effect:
The competitive sports program is a voluntary program, therefore, a sports physical
examination will be required for all competitive sports participants. No exemptions
(religious or medical) will be accepted.
Each time you plan to pick your child up from an event, you must have this
form signed by either the Middle School Sports Director (Nancy James/CMS,
Robin Schemansky/EMS or Phil Tarantino/WMS) or your School’s Principal
PRIOR to the end of the school day.

GREENWICH PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Greenwich, CT
July 2014
Dear Parents:
The Greenwich Public School district requests that teams refrain from purchasing
additional items that are not part of your school supplied middle school sports uniform. This
practice ensures program equity across all schools. We have had problems enforcing this policy
across the district and in each of the middle schools. This letter is a request that you respect
and support the stated policy that was developed by the three middle school principals, the
assistant superintendent, and the program coordinator for physical education.
The policy reads as follows: “The district practice for middle school sports is
for teams to wear only the uniform provided by the district as funded by the budget
allocation for each middle school.”
We have had situations where parent groups have purchased supplemental uniform
items, such as warm-ups and sweatshirts. This violates our policy. Coaches are required to
reinforce this policy with his/her athletes and parents at pre-season meetings so we do not run
into a compromising situation.
It is only with your support that we can implement this policy at each middle school. If
you have any questions or concerns regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact the
middle school sports directors:
Central Middle School
Eastern Middle School
Western Middle School
