- As per N.J.A.C. 6A:16, all student athletes are required to have a current sports physical on file which has been approved by our school physician. Your child will not be allowed to participate in any tryouts and/or practices until all forms have been approved.
- Sports physicals must be submitted on a state approved form and completed by a licensed MD or DO (See “Athletic Physical and Permission Forms Link)
- Approved physicals are valid for 365 days from the date of the exam
- If your physical was not completed within 90 days of the start of the season, a Medical History Update form must be completed and submitted (See “Medical History Update Form” below)
- You may check the status of your child’s physical on the parent portal.
- All physicals must be approved by the school physician as per N.J.A.C. 6A:16-2.2 which requires the school physician to provide written notification to the parent/legal guardian stating approval or disapproval of the student’s participation in athletics based on this physical evaluation. This evaluation and the notification letter become part of the student’s school health record.
