We are looking through our sign up list and seeing that lots of students do not have a physicals in their files. In order to participate in our athletics program students need to have a physical every 2 years. If your child had a physical recently please send us a copy. If we don't have a date of a pending physical from the doctors office or a copy of completed physical by Monday, September 28th they will not be allowed to play or practice.
Participation in Athletics
Students who wish to participate in middle school or high school athletics are required to have a physical examination and medical approval before doing so. The physical examination must have been given within 2 years (730 days) prior to participation including tryouts. Thereafter, students participating in athletics must have a physical examination on a schedule recommended by their health care provider, but not less frequently than once every two years. A student will not be allowed to participate in tryouts, practice or competition without the required physical examination and medical approval. In the years that a physical examination is not required athletes must submit a health history form which is reviewed by the school nurse.
The school nurse, after reviewing the form, may refer the student to his/her health care provider for more extensive examination. A student whose health status is questionable and has been referred for further examination will not be allowed to participate in practice or competition until he/she has been examined and medically approved for participation.
