The athletic period at Haggard is designed to help prepare students for school sports and as a practice period for a player currently involved in a school sport.  Students signing up for an athletic period should be prepared for more strenuous activity than in a typical physical education course.  7th Grade athletics will be held before school and during 1st period, while 8th Grade athletics will be held during 7th period and after school.  Students should also be aware that in some instances, making a team is a requisite to participation in the athletic period.  Sports in which tryouts are held are basketball, tennis and volleyball.  A current physical signed by a physician must be on campus prior to a student trying out for a team or participating in practice. There are no tryouts for football and track. Tennis and Track are held exclusively after the school day. For more information on a team sport requirement, click on that specific sport.
