After School Games
For families that are new to Poole MS, we do have a few protocols for students attending games after school. Students must go home on game days. There is no staff supervision between the end of the day and the start of games. To attend games, students must be accompanied by an adult, 18 or over, that will stay with them for the duration of the game. SCPS has a clear bag policy for all sporting events
