Welcome to the High School Health Office
FALL 2024 SPORTS ONLINE REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN.
To Register for a sport:
Go to our Sports Online Registration (OR) link. Note: You must register online and submit the Medical Eligibility Form to the Nurse. ** You can not upload the form, the original document must be turned in to the health office.
PLEASE NOTE: THE SPORTS PHYSICAL CLEARANCE PROCESS HAS CHANGED EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2024!
PLEASE READ ALL THE INFORMATION BELOW CAREFULLY
The New Jersey Department of Education (NJDOE) has changed the sports physical submission process. The sports physical examination form and the health history form no longer needs to be submitted to the school. YOUR Physician who performs the exam keeps them at his office. This is an update to NJ state law that requires all students that plan to participate in the after-school Athletic Program in Middle School and High School.
***The ONLY form you submit to your school nurse is THE MEDICAL ELIGIBILITY FORM.
Your doctor completes this form when he does the physical.
You must submit the original, no faxes or emails.***
- Preparticipation Physical Exams are valid for 365 days. The physical must be current on the day of the first practice to be considered valid. Please be aware that physical exams are recorded based on the date of the exam, not the date the form was completed by the physician.
- Sports Physical Exams must be recorded on the New Jersey Department of Education Annual Athletic Pre-Participation Evaluation Form. THIS FORM IS TO BE KEPT ON FILE BY THE STUDENT’S HEALTHCARE PROVIDER.
- THE MEDICAL ELIGIBILITY FORM MUST BE COMPLETED BY THE HEALTHCARE PROVIDER, AND SUBMITTED TO THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. THIS IS THE ONLY FORM THAT IS REQUIRED TO BE SUBMITTED TO THE NURSE’S OFFICE.
- NO student is permitted to try-out or compete in a sport without the documentation being completed. Registration will open open over the summer for FALL sports.
- Complete the Health History Update Questionnaire in the FORMS SECTION of the Genesis Parent Portal. This is part of the registration process each sport season.
To avoid delays in clearing sports physicals, be sure to turn in your paperwork on time. Please note -No emails or faxes accepted.
