Greetings, ISY Community,
Middle School Soccer Sign-Ups Are Open!
Dear Middle School Students,
Exciting news! Sign-ups are now open for Middle School Soccer! Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or simply curious about trying something new, we encourage you to join one of our fantastic teams.
Signing up is easy—just scan the QR codes posted on the Athletics, Arts, and Activities boards around campus. If you have any trouble, don’t hesitate to stop by the Athletics, Arts, and Activities Office—we’re happy to help!
Before you sign up, make sure to read through the memos carefully. These provide important details about what’s expected of players, including commitments, practice schedules, and more.
We can’t wait to see you out on the field! Let’s work together to make this an unforgettable soccer season.
Staying Active and Having Fun This Holiday Season
As we approach the much-anticipated December holiday, I want to take a moment to thank everyone for an incredible semester filled with exciting games, inspiring performances, and joyful moments. It has been a pleasure to see our ISY community shine through Athletics, Arts, and Activities.
As you enjoy your well-deserved break, I encourage you to take some time to relax, recharge, and spend quality moments with your loved ones. While holidays are often a time to rest, staying active and having fun can make your break even more rewarding. Here are a few simple tips to keep moving and stay engaged:
- Explore the Outdoors
Take advantage of the cooler weather and explore the beautiful surroundings. Whether it’s a walk, hike, or bike ride, getting outside is a wonderful way to stay active and enjoy nature.
- Try New Activities
The holidays are the perfect time to experiment with something new. How about trying yoga, learning a dance routine, or playing a new sport with your family or friends?
- Keep it Simple
You don’t need a gym to stay active—jump rope, play tag, or have a friendly soccer match in the backyard. Simple activities can bring the most joy.
- Balance Rest and Movement
While staying active is important, don’t forget to rest and recharge. Enjoy a good book, watch your favorite movie, or spend time journaling or reflecting on your goals for the new year.
- Stay Connected
Plan fun activities with family and friends, like a game of charades, a holiday scavenger hunt, or a group run. Staying connected with loved ones is a great way to nurture your mental well-being.
I wish each of you a joyful and peaceful holiday season. May it be filled with laughter, relaxation, and plenty of fun. I look forward to seeing you all again in the new year, ready for more adventures in Athletics, Arts, and Activities!
Happy Holidays!
Warm regards,
