The post-season is right around the corner for many of our winter sports. The next few weeks will be crucial to determining how our winter teams finish the season. They've all put in a tremendous amount of work this season, and we are proud of their efforts. Whether it be basketball, swimming, or wrestling be sure to catch a game or contest before the season comes to an end!

Also, thank you to all of our dedicated "Inside the Den" readers, we had over 7,000 newsletter views last week alone! Congrats to Erin Young, our "Inside the Den" new reader of the week!

Thank you so much to our family's that came out to 8th grade night on Wednesday! We had a great turnout and enjoyed meeting our future Grizzlies for the first time.

If you were unable to attend and are missing your informational folder, 8th grade flex time teachers will be handing those out next Tuesday. Our NPHS counselors will also be headed over soon to discuss elective options for next year!

If you wanted to view the presentation from Wednesday, use the link below.

Congrats to our 6 seniors who have made the commitment to continue their athletic careers in college as they pursue continuing education!

Congratulations to Alyssa Anderson and Kaden Purler for being the NPHS honorees this year as our Outstanding Athletes that are being nominated to be recognized by the St. Charles County Amatuer Sports Hall of Fame!

If you are planning on participating in a high school spring sport you'll need to be sure you register ASAP! Even if you've participated in a fall or winter sport, you'll still need to log in for your spring sport clearance!

Spring Registration will close on February 24, so be sure to complete it and ensure you are ready for tryouts.

Remember you will need to upload your current physical and have a valid impact test in order to be cleared for the first day of tryouts on March 3.

Impact Testing Dates

We will have impact testing available for those without a current valid test, after school, 2:30pm, in the library on:

Wednesday 2/12

You'll need to make sure you bring a charged chromebook to be able to take the test.

Be sure to head out to the Den this evening for Basketball Senior Night. Our girls have been playing very well as of late, including a nice conference win over FZN.

Be sure to head out to the Den this evening for Basketball Senior Night. Our boys team has been playing very well as of late, including a nice conference win over FZE.

It was great to see the girls swim team in action on Senior Night v. St. Dominic. The Conference meet starts next week, good luck ladies!

A huge accomplishment for the Girls Wrestling program, they won their 4th straight conference championship on Thursday night with a win over FZS. This is their first Central title after winning the North each of the last three years.

The boys wrestling team celebrated their seniors this Thursday and picked up a nice win vs. FZS.

Winter Concessions sign ups are out, and we need your help! Use the link below to volunteer your time, and you can earn 20$ per sign up to go to your NP program of choice!

The activities office has two different styles of fitted, New Era "NP" hats available in the Activities Office 618. We do have limited sizes, so you'll need to hurry if you want one, we won't be able to hold any hats.

They are $35 per hat, swing by the office and get yours today!

Having great attendance is a must for athletes and activities participants. Not only does being in class regularly help with your grades, but it is required to be able to participate on a day when your sport or activity has a contest or game!

Our North Point parents have been great so far about keeping my office up to date, thank you for your efforts! Here are a few quick reminders:

- If your student will miss all or a portion of a school day that falls on the same date as a game/contest, this absence will need to be pre-approved by Dr. Adams.

- Parents should email Dr. Adams at least 24 hours in advance of the absence on a contest day, including partial absences for doctors appointments. He will respond back approving or denying the ability to play/participate.

- Students should bring a doctor's note back with them to give to the attendance office upon their return.

- Remember, any absence that isn't pre-approved (including leaving school for lunch or for forgotten items at home) on the day of a contest will make the student ineligible to compete that day.

- Be careful with Fridays or days prior to breaks, if the contest is on a Saturday and the absence occurs on a Friday, a student will not be eligible to compete on Saturday.

- All absences should be called in or emailed to the attendance office, and absences from a practice should be communicated directly with coaches and sponsors.

Thank you for your continued help!

You can access winter sports schedules now on the webpage linked below. There is also an "Activity Scheduler" app available for your mobile device that will alert you of schedule changes. It is a great idea to go ahead and save that link to your browser for future reference.

Spring schedules will be public soon, please remember that there is a good chance for early season schedule changes due to other school's participation numbers or unanticipated scheduling conflicts. We thank you for your patience as we iron those out with other schools.

Please remember that participating in sports and activities here at North Point is a privilege, not a right. Student participants are expected to maintain their eligibility and citizenship by following our district and MSHSAA Guidelines. Please click on the pictures below to review the attached resources to help ensure your eligibility for the entirety of the school year.

Be sure to follow the Activities Department to stay up to date of everything happening at North Point.
