🏀⚽ Is Your Child Playing a School Sport This Year? 🏐🏃‍♂️

If your child is playing a school sport this year that isn’t a fall sport (like basketball, wrestling, or track), please remember:
👉 Their sports physical doesn’t need to be done before school starts.
It just needs to be completed before their first day of practice.

Right now, we are prioritizing scheduling for students who are playing fall sports like volleyball or cross country and whose practices begin in August.

If your child’s sport starts later in the year, there’s still plenty of time to get scheduled!

Thank you for helping us make sure all our student-athletes are ready for their seasons. 🏅
