EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES
SPORTS
Fort Lupton Middle School offers a wide variety of after-school sports during the year. The program for seventh and eighth graders is interscholastic, with scheduled competitions against other middle schools in our district. These sports include gymnastics, football, boys wrestling, girls volleyball, girls and boys basketball and track and field.
Please listen to the school announcements for specific beginning and ending dates of these seasons. There is a no “cut” policy for any of these sport offerings at Fort Lupton Middle School. An athletic physical examination and a participation fee are required in order to participate in each interscholastic sport. All sports physicals MUST be current within the last year.
Students are issued a sport uniform free of charge and are expected to return the uniform in good condition or fines will be assessed.
Rules and consequences for FLMS Students participating in extra curricular activities:
1. A student that is suspended out of school will not be allowed to participate in any competition for an entire week. This time period will begin with the time of the suspension. When the student returns, they will be required to attend all practices during the week following a suspension if they want to remain on the team.
2. A student that is suspended in-school will not be allowed to participate in either practice or competition during the day/days of suspension. In-School suspension is defined as time that a student is assigned ISS for more than one period. This does not include lunch detention or time out.
3. These rules do not replace school rules. These rules and consequences are in addition to the existing school rules outlined in the handbook.
