Athletics
Team Managers Needed

Hello Miners! Our sports seasons are right around the corner. The schedule will be different than any other time, but this gives us the unique opportunity to get involved! Sarah Smith (your Athletic Trainer.. also known as Coach Hadicke) is looking for students interested in being a team manager. This position needs to be filled for every single sport and it is a great time to learn how to contribute to your school! No athletic or sports med experience is needed. Just the desire to get immersed in a sport you enjoy and becoming an invaluable member of a team. Please email her ASAP at sarah.smith@bishopmanogue.org. She will be scheduling a zoom meeting in order to give detailed information and answer any questions you may have. Go Miners!
Hello Manogue Parents,

Have you completed Athletic Clearance for your child yet? If not, NOW is the time! Find out how at bishopmanogueathletics.com/clearance.

With our seasons condensed due to COVID-19, it's more important than ever not to wait until the last minute.

Winter sports are scheduled to begin January 2, 2021, followed six short weeks later by Fall sports, with Spring sports just six weeks after that. That's a SPRINT, and we want all of our athletes to hit the ground running--cleared and ready to participate the moment they are allowed.

You'll find complete instructions at bishopmanogueathletics.com/clearance, and if you have problems or questions, contact me!

D.O.R.S. Recipients Show Gratitude

Here are some words of gratitude from Diocese of Reno Scholarship Recipients! Congratulations to these these Miners, and thank you to the Diocese of Reno for providing this incredible opportunity.

"Thank you for the D.O.R.S. It helped me become a better, more mature young Catholic man. I can lead my life wherever with a good head on my shoulders, so thank you!"

"Catholic education is very important to our family. We want the kids to grow up not only academically successful, but also physically, emotionally, and most importantly, spiritually balanced. In a Catholic school, they are not only educated but also challenged to make decisions and actions that are centered in Christ. We promise to fulfill our service hours not because it is a requirement, but because it is our way of giving back for this blessing."

"I promise that I will do my best to get good grades. I will do everything to make this opportunity not go to waste and I will make you very proud of me!"

"Thank you for giving our daughter the opportunity to have the best education... a Catholic education!"

"I am finally a senior at Bishop Manogue, and I am disheartened to say that this will be my last letter to you all. I have realized that your financial help has been a hidden light in my life. Until this year, I never knew how heavy the weight of bills could be, and without this scholarship, I am not sure how we would have survived. Despite all of the things happening in the world, I want to continue being active as a student. I found my home at this school, and even though this is my last year, I still want to make my mark. Thank you for being part of my history..."

"I know that this D.O.R. Scholarship will truly change my life! I promise that I will do my very best and not make you regret your decision of choosing me for this scholarship."

Service Hours
Speech and Debate Judge

Speech and Debate is looking for adult volunteers to judge virtual rounds! Depending on the event, you may be watching prerecorded videos or live rounds. This will take place the week of December 7th and opportunities are flexible.

Contact Will Monsey at will.monsey@bishopmanogue.org if you are able and willing to help judge!
Remember, the Diocese of Reno has mandatory requirements for volunteering at all Diocesan schools, including Bishop Manogue, and you cannot earn service hours until those requirements have been met. Contact Bonnie Hansen at  bonnie.hansen@bishopmanogue.org  or 775-336-6000 with questions.

Parents will have to enroll in Protecting God's Children through Virtus and stay up to date on monthly bulletins for two years. After the two years, you have completed all the necessary bulletins. This transfers over from any of the Diocesan schools. If you are still receiving bulletins after two complete years, contact Elda Juarez at  eldaj@catholicreno.org  to be removed from the update list.
