-An athlete planning to participate in a sport during the 2020-2021 season without a current PPE form (date of physical 3/1/19-5/1/20) will need to obtain an evaluation/physical before they will be allowed to participate.
A Friendly REMINDer
If you haven't already, make sure to sign up for your teacher's REMINDS. Teachers send out reminds for large assignments, an upcoming test, or other important classroom news. Also, if you aren't receiving the Google Classroom Guardian Summaries, reach out to your student's teachers. This would help with seeing a summary of what is going on in the class and for any upcoming assignments. REMIND codes can be found on our school website under the tab 'Remote Learning Portal'.
