We hope everyone is enjoying the summer. In a few weeks we’ll all be back together for the first day of school on Monday, August 29th. Until then, students who are interested in playing fall sports should take note of the below information.

FALL SPORTS – Pre-season and tryouts are fast approaching! Below is the pre-season information for most sports. We will update as more information becomes available. As always, keep an eye on our Instagram account @SLA_Rockets for updates, and contact Athletic Director, Ms. Siswick, at zsiswick@scienceleadership.org with any questions.
