Sports Physicals

All students grades 7-12 who desire to participate in interscholastic athletics must receive an adequate physical examination or medical history update approved by the school physician. No student will be allowed to try out, practice or participate with any team without the required physical examination. There are NO EXCEPTIONS. Physical examinations are provided by the school district prior to each sports season free of charge. You may have your son/daughter examined by your family physical. The district medical form must be completed and returned directly to the school nurse [Forms can be downloaded at right]. Failure to provide proof of a physical examination and turn in the proper health forms will prevent an athlete from participation at any level. Physical examinations are valid for the school calendar year. Students trying out for a fall sport are encouraged to get a physical examination during May or June instead of waiting for the make-up exams administered in August. 

Note:
Parents must completely fill out a medical sports update form and return it to the school nurse prior to the first practice each season.

Parents must completely fill out the Athletic Card and Emergency Medical Authorization forms, specifically indicating emergency phone numbers. Parents are responsible for updating changes during the season.

All injured athletes who have been seen by a physician must be released (signed statement) by that physician in order to resume participation with their team. This release must be filed with the school nurse prior to resuming practice or competition.

In cases of a long-term or severe injury, clearance by the school physician may also be necessary prior to the return of an athlete.
