Elementary school students are introduced to sports in PE class, but for many, middle school is their first opportunity to wear a jersey and play on a team. The physical benefits complement the long-lasting rewards of learning how to work with others, building confidence and succeeding in a group. The hard work and lessons learned by playing on the field or in the gym carry over to the classroom. Middle school students must have passing grades in all classes to participate. CHISD offers basketball, cross country, football, tennis, track and volleyball. 13
