** Online Check-In can be done through the ActivStars App or on the ActivStars Athletics Website (the link is in my signature below)
* Parents please check in with the class secretaries upon arrival every week. If they are not checked in in person, then they will be marked absent.

* Please be sure to read the Parent Helper Guidelines below if you would like to participate as a Parent Helper
