Elmira High School

There is still time to sign up an athlete for basketball or wrestling. Practices start on Monday, November 13th, which is also the deadline to sign up on Family ID at https://www.familyid.com/elmira-high-school

Playing sports this year is free for families, but athletes do need a current physical on file.

Parents and Guardians,

We welcome fans to come to the game and root our football team to victory, however, we also want parents and guardians to be aware that some students are leaving the areas that are supervised during the game. We strongly recommend parents/guardians to join their students at the games keeping an eye on them while they are here.

During the last football game, multiple students left the football field and spent time in unsupervised areas (parking lot, track, etc.). Staff left the game to bring students back to the field when we discovered they walked away.

To create a safer experience at the football game this Friday for all of our fans, we will not allow students to leave the game and re-enter. The middle and high school will announce this change to students, but we wanted parents/guardians to be aware as well.
