NEW PHYSICAL FORM RELEASED BY OHSAA
The OHSAA has released its new physical form. Every student must have a physical on file in the office before they are allowed to participate in sports at Houston. Physical examinations are valid for one year. It is highly suggested that students schedule their physicals during the summer months. You can print off a physical form by clicking the following link:
NEW TRACK OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
The track located at Houston High School is nearly complete. The lines were put on the track on March 22nd. We have to touch up a few spots and extend the outside lane to its proper width. But those things are hardly noticeable when you look at the track. Those items will be completed soon. The track is open to the public. We invite everyone to make use of the track. It will be open during daylight hours. The only time the track will be closed to the public is when the track team is having practice or meets. When using the track, please adhere to the following guidelines.
1) Use the outside lanes when using the track.
2) No wheeled vehicles or motorized vehicles on the track (cars, bikes, skateboards, strollers, etc.).
3) No pets or animals of any kind on the track.
4) Wear proper athletic shoes on the track (no cleats or heels, etc.).
A big thank you goes to the community for its financial support in completing the track. We also would like to thank everyone for their efforts in helping the Houston Athletic Complex Committee in developing the athletic complex even further. The HACC is currently undertaking projects that will help make our track able to hold JH and high school track meets, including the Shelby County Athletic League Meet. We are getting ready to start building the varsity softball field, little league enclosed field, and the two little league open diamonds. After this is complete, we will start improving the track area with a plan to build a concession/storage building, bleachers and lights.
RESPECT THE GAME - RESPECT YOURSELF PROGRAM
The Respect the Game - Respect Yourself program has been launched by the Houston High School Athletic Department. We invite all coaches, parents, administrators, athletes and fans to join in. The program is all about character and ethics. Please click on the RGRY icon on the top right hand side of this page to sign up.
FUTURE MANDATORY PRESEASON PARENT MEETING DATES
The Ohio High School Athletic Association requires each school to hold a mandatory preseason parents' meeting before each sports season. A parent must attend one of these meetings in order for their son/daughter to be eligible for sports at Houston High School. A parent only needs to attend one meeting per school year. If a parent attends the fall meeting, the parent does not have to attend the winter or spring meetings. Below is the list of meeting dates for the upcoming school years. Please plan accordingly as these meetings are mandatory.
