Students planning to participate in school-sponsored sports next year need to have a sports physical on file.  Physicals are good for two years, so if your child had a physical this year or the Spring of last year, they are still good.

ALL 8th GRADE STUDENTS ENTERING THE HIGH SCHOOL NEED TO HAVE A NEW PHYSICAL IF THEY ARE PARTICIPATING IN HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS!

Students can pick up a physical form and Student Discount Card (Physicals are only $20.00 with this card) in the office.  Insurance does not apply.  Appointments will be taken at the clinic from May 1st - June 29th.  Appointments will be made for the following dates and times:
