Local soccer club tells board 70 students are participating and asks to formalize school connection
Summary
A presenter told the Fort Morgan school board the soccer club has grown to about 70 students across six teams, has engaged many students who had not previously participated in activities, and asked the district to formalize the program's connection to the school.
A presenter described the district soccer club’s rapid growth and urged the School District No. Re-3 Fort Morgan board to formalize a connection between the club and the school.
The presenter said the club now includes about 70 students across six teams, with structured practices and organized games. They told trustees the program reaches students who had not previously been involved in other activities — noting the club enrolled "30 students that had never been in activities before" — and described the program as a "low cost, high impact opportunity" that uses existing fields and minimal equipment.
The presenter asked the board for support to "connect to school" so the program can continue to grow and provide students a place to belong and opportunities to build teamwork and responsibility. The board thanked the presenter and did not take formal action during the meeting.
