Pertussis Update
Pertussis has been running though Trinity for awhile now
and it is very important that you keep your child home if they have
any symptoms. If they have been in close contact with any of the
current students who have pertussis, it is important to contact your
physician. We are trying our best to stop the spreading before the
upcoming Christmas season. If you have any questions, please
contact the county nurse or your family physician.
Mid-Quarter Reports
Please remember to sign and send
back the Mid-Quarter grades. If you have any
questions or concerns, please contact your
child’s teacher.
P AGE 3
Coach’s note: The girl teams are doing well this year! A few
areas to work on as the season continues are position defense,
rebounding, and free throws. If we work on these areas, the girls are
going to be tough to beat. Please keep an eye out for information on the
games with St. John’s Neillsville being rescheduled. The boy teams are
doing good and learning new things, and competing in all games they
played even though they played a couple hard teams.
Jared Oemig one of the boys players says, the B-boys team
played very well and it was an exciting and close game with the game
winning shot. He also says, the A-boys team worked hard through the
whole game and only lost by 6 points. The A-girls did very well for
having no subs and they pulled off a good win! The B-girls played there
hardest and did very well!
Tournament Date
The boys B-Team has been invited to play in a tournament over in Lewiston, MN on the
7 and 8th of January. We will be participating in the tournament. Look for a schedule of the
tournament information in the near future. Mr. Schultz has informed the coach of the players
who will be participating. If any other B-Team players and/or parents have a change in mind,
feel free to contact Mr. Schultz.
th
Possible Tournament Date
We have also been invited to participate in a co-ed tournament at Luther Prep School in
Watertown, WI on March 9th and 10th. There are schools from across the country participating in
