Prior to participating in any athletic practice and/or game, students must have the physical and concussion/head injury forms on file in the school office.  These forms were handed out/sent home with next year's 6th-12th grade students.  Click on PHYSICAL FORM 2026-27 for a copy if needed.  Click on CONCUSSION/HEAD INJURY FORM 2026-27 in case that form is needed.

2026 SUMMER MORATORIUM June 29-July 5, 2026, are the dates of the KSHSAA summer moratorium. According to KSHSAA Handbook Rule 9-1-5, there shall be NO school related athletic activities. During this time coaches (licensed teacher coaches and coach aides employed by member schools) shall be prohibited from engaging in any type of activity involving student athletes whether it be practice, training, weightlifting, conditioning, competition or travel. All member school athletic facilities will be closed during this period to school personnel and students grades 7-12. If member school athletic facilities also serve as non-school community recreation facilities, these facilities may remain open during the moratorium so long as no school teams are playing, and no school coaches are coaching the teams/individuals. During this one-week dead period, students may attend camps or competitions but may not do so with their school coaches.
