2025 Sheridan Track Tryouts
We will be having our Track Tryouts for the 2025 school year in December. We will
have different tryout dates for the different campuses in order to get a better look at
each individual. Tryouts will be hosted at the High School Track in Sheridan.
Tryout Dates:
December 2-3 East End Middle School (7th and 8th only)
December 4-5 Sheridan Middle School (7th and 8th only)
December 9-10 Sheridan High School 9-12
-AN ATHLETIC PHYSICAL IS REQUIRED TO TRYOUT
You can get a physical from the school Jacket Wellness Clinic or from your
preferred doctor, but one is required in order to try out. A copy of the physical will need
to be shown to us before the tryout. If you played school football, volleyball, cheer, or
dance, your physical is most likely still good.
-Tryouts will run from 3:45-5:15 each day.
- For Dec. 2-3 (An East End Shuttle will pick up 7th and 8th grade students at EMS at
3:20 and transport them to Sheridan.) You can pick your child up at the football field, or
they can ride the 5:30 East End Shuttle back to EMS.
-Sheridan kids must be picked up at 5:30 at the football field.
-Bring extra water
- Wear tennis shoes and running clothes
-Wrestling and basketball athletes will try out at a later date once their season is over.

CKH WORD OF THE MONTH ~ TEAMWORK
What is Teamwork?
Teamwork is the ability to work in unity with others towards a common goal. For us to learn how to become team players, it is important that we learn to listen, encourage our peers, and allow and invite others to contribute their talents and skills.
