Swim Team Update - Week of 11/25/19

Good evening everyone,

Happy Thanksgiving week! Please check the reminders and our schedule below. Lineups for both Solon Relays and Pyamtuning Invitational will be posted at practice starting tomorrow.

















Reminders:
1.) Student-athletes taking College Credit Plus (CCP) classes, I need your grade forms as soon as possible. We have the most students of any Mentor HS team taking CCP classes, which is awesome! However, I have yet to receive any forms. Please turn these forms in directly to me. Ohio High School Athletic Association requires you to submit this before you are able to swim a meet for the school. An extra copy is attached to this email. If you are in an online class, you may just print out your grade-book report.

2.) Pay to play has been posted for the swim team roster in Infinite Campus. Please have this paid by the first meet that you will swim in. If you have any questions or believe there is an error, please reach out to the HS athletic office atCassella@mentorschools.org or 440.974.5304. Thank you!
