Talk:James McKinney Elementary School

message: There was a huge chunk of stuff about school sports in the article that looked out of place. I removed it for that reason, and also because there's nothing special or unique about their sports teams that I can see. Here's the deleted chunk:
...
Annually, a volleyball, basketball and a track team is organized by this school.
These activities, however, are only organized if there is a teacher that will help coach and supervise this.
===Volleyball===
The school organizes this co-ed event once a year for the grade sixes and sevens.  Whether or not the grade sixes and sevens will be split up depends on the amount of people signing up.  This team is always made up of both boys and girls.  The grade seven team (or grade six/seven team) usually enters a tournament at the end of the season.  The team is almost always formed at the start of the school year until the Winter Holiday break (in December).
===Basketball===
This sporting event (for grade sixes and sevens) is very similar to volleyball with the exceptions that the team is not combined with boys and girls.  They are split up.  The team is organized from the end of Winter Holidays (start of January) to somewhere between late-March and mid-April.
===Track and Field===
This is a part of the physical education program of the school.  The team is made for children from Grades 3-7.  This includes long distance, sprints, relays, softball, high jump, long jump, discus and shot put.  The tryouts start in early-April to mid-April.  The competition for this event is usually held from early-May to mid-May.

Relays   	3-7  	Running 100m and then passing a baton to another teammate.  The team that finishes first wins.	2 + spares                                    	Grades 3-7: 4 x 100m

Co-ed: 2 boys and 2 girls from one grade on a team.
Multi-grade: One runner from each grades: 4, 5, 6, 7.  All runners have the same gender.
On the chart above, the amount of relay teams is meant to be the amount of normal relay teams.  The amount of irregular relay teams are as follows: There is 2 co-ed teams per grade. There is 4 multi-grade teams per gender.

I'll leave it here, in case someone wants to salvage some useful info out of it. -→Buchanan-Hermit™/?! 03:59, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
