News and Announcements
Dear Viking community,
On Tuesday evening, there was a great turnout for the swim program meeting; thank you to all parents that were able to attend. As a recap, and as a reference for interested families that were unable to attend, attached is the handout that was distributed during this meeting. This handout will review all program details, fees, and procedures for the swim season. In addition, there is a section of swim coach biographies so you can get to know the new swim coaching staff better.
The most important thing that should be noted about the swim program is that during the Swim Season (October – February) all participating students MUST be registered and be an active member of a swimming club. Examples of this are Energy Core Swimming, MAC, Katy Aquatics, etc.
For all parents that signed in at either the May swim meeting or the one that occurred last night, your child has been put on the swim program interests list to ensure all future program information is sent to you. As a reminder, this program is only available to current 6th – 12th grade students.
Below are important contacts if you find you have any additional comments and/or questions:
Dustin Embrey – Director of Athletics
Doug Buckalew – Energy Core Swim Head Coach & Village School Swim Coach
Stephanie Phillips – Village School Coach and Swim Coordinator
sphillips@thevillageschool.com
Jeff Bond – Associate Director of Athletics
John DeBakey – Middle School Athletic Director
We are excited to get this program underway and thank you for being a part of this new adventure for us.
Go Vikings!
