POLE VAULT :
If you are interested in being a pole vaulter, you will need to complete the NFHS Coaching Pole Vault Course. Watch all the videos in the course and complete the quiz at the end. When you pass the course print your certificate and turn it in to me or email me a copy, alisha.cole@kellerisd.net. You will need to register for the course. It is a free course but you will need to go through the process of ordering before you can complete all sections and take the test.
