Cline is the second Falcon to receive All-Region recognition. In 2008, former Falcon Devon Newport became the first Falcon to receive All-Region honors. Cline is the second area girl to receive All-Region honors. Rolla’s Anne Felts was all-region in 2000 and All-American in 2001.

Fall Athletics Survey

by Administrator on November 30, 2011

The following is the number of students and parents who took the survey:

Soccer: Students – 24, Parents – 7

As you can see, parent participation was low, and student participation could have been better. Please understand, not only do the results give all of us a tool to improve our programs, but also gives us data that can be shared with SPS Administration, the Board, and our Community to better show the importance of Activities and give us more justification to increase support for our kids.

The survey will be open again from now through Monday, December 5.
