Good afternoon, Conklin parents,

We are excited to announce that our sports season will begin next week, including Elementary and Middle School Soccer, as well as Cross Country! Please visit the Conklin RPS page to view the full game schedules for your child’s team.

As a reminder, all sports physicals are required before a middle school athlete’s first game. Students without a completed physical on file will not be allowed to participate. Physicals should be submitted to the nurse’s office prior to the start of games.

If you have any questions, please contact AD Quon Denny at Miquon.Denny@rps205.com
