attention. If your concerns are not satisfied, contact the
principal of your child’s school. If this does not produce a
satisfactory solution, contact Central Administration. If you are
unable to agree, you may request that the matter be brought to
the Board of Education’s attention.

New York State law requires all students participating in athletics to
receive a sports physical. Sports physical information and forms can
be picked up at the health office or by visiting the district website. The
forms must be completed before your child is able to participate in the
interscholastic program. The results of the Sports Physicals shall be
valid for a period of twelve months during the last day of the month
in which the physical was conducted. The final approval for sports
clearance rests with the school medical officer.
The Health Examination Form is to be completed by your primary
health care provider or by the school medical officer. Make sure
that your healthcare provider signs, stamps and completes the form
including any medications, inhalers, etc. A student may not participate
without the approval of the school medical officer.
The Health History form is part of the physical and is to be completed
by parent/guardian and handed to the Health Office along with the
Health Examination form. A new Health History form must be
completed thirty (30) days prior to the start of any additional sport
season in which the student would like to participate.
